Description

### Describe the bug

If I have my app minimized, I get a different inspection list vs if the app is open. I would expect the app to open and then inspect.

There could be use cases where you'd want to inspect the tree while the app is minimized but, in most cases, I assume you'd want the app open when the inspect happens.

### To Reproduce

1. Run your app and minimize
2. Run `winapp ui inspect --app `
3. Compare to when the app is maximized, `winapp ui inspect --app `

### Expected behavior

App should open and then inspect.
