Subject: [PATCH 1/3] feat: add wob overlay for volume and brightness keys
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Move FIFO setup and percentage emission into helper scripts so the
Hyprland config has no raw $VAR references — Hyprland's parser
substitutes $varname at parse time, which mangled awk's $2 and
$HYPRLAND_INSTANCE_SIGNATURE and left binds broken after reload.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] fix: capture active monitor in screenshot bind instead of
 hardcoded DP-1

Ctrl+Print was tied to DP-1, so it failed on the laptop alone or with
a different external. Using -m active picks the currently focused
output, so the same bind works on any host.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] feat: add mirror-display toggle to launch menu

Adds a "Mirror Display" entry that calls a helper script which finds
the first connected non-internal monitor and toggles mirroring of
eDP-1 onto it via hyprctl. Use case: plugging into a conference room
TV/projector while travelling.

Also fixes the menu's "Screenshot full" entry to capture the active
output instead of the hardcoded DP-1, matching the equivalent fix to
the Ctrl+Print keybind.
