Summary

Adds inhibit_idle fullscreen window commands to sway config on ringtail
Covers both Wayland-native (app_id) and XWayland (class) windows
Prevents swayidle from locking the screen during gamepad-only gaming sessions where controller input isn't detected by the Wayland idle tracker

Notes

This is a blanket fullscreen inhibit. A more targeted approach (daemon monitoring /dev/input gamepad events) may be desired later to allow idle lock during long-running fullscreen apps like Factorio.

Deployment and Testing

mise run provision-ringtail to deploy
Run a fullscreen app and verify swayidle doesn't lock after 15 minutes
Verify lock still activates when no fullscreen window is present
