theupriser 4cc87aaea6 feat: HDMI refresh boost per display, with a Saved displays screen
Rates are saved per display (EDID ID) and loaded by the hotplug script
for whichever display is connected. The item is on only while the
connected display is boosted; unticking removes just that one. The app
lists the saved displays and removes any of them (hdmi-forget).

theupriser 36d0a9d780 feat: HDMI refresh boost only for the display it was set up for
The EDID override moves off the kernel command line to a hotplug script
(boot unit + udev rule) that loads it only while the display it was
tested on is connected, identified over DDC; other displays get their
own EDID.

theupriser a898d23b13 feat: HDMI refresh boost (Steam Machine, pinned kernel)
The pinned 7.1.6 kernel doesn't read the extra EDID block (HDMI Forum
EEODB) where monitors list their fast modes, and does no HDMI 2.1, so HDMI
displays often stay at 60 Hz. The new menu item reads the display's EDID
over DDC, calculates the highest rate that fits HDMI 2.0 at the desktop
resolution (rounded down to ten, plus the hundred below as a safe option),
tests each step live with a confirmation, and makes the confirmed ones
permanent through drm.edid_firmware (Limine, sdboot-manage or GRUB).

theupriser ce75e895c4 fix: Show the HDMI-CEC settings in Steam
CachyOS's gaming mode script sets STEAM_ENABLE_CEC=0. A drop-in for
steam-launcher.service overrides it with a later EnvironmentFile=.

theupriser 1522e5632d feat: No more KDE wallet password prompts in single user mode
Valve's empty, password-less wallet, like SteamOS. The user's wallet is
moved aside and restored when single user mode is off; the single user
wallet is kept and reused next time.
