fix(hyprland): use windowrulev2 for class matching and update docs

- Fixed invalid `windowrule` syntax when matching by class regex
  which caused Hyprland parse errors.
- Documented IPC socket watcher for display profiles in README.
- Updated agent/JOURNAL.md.

+## 2026-07-08 — Hyprland Config Fix: Window rules syntax (iteration #88)
+- **Task:** Investigate a red Hyprland error banner visible in VM screenshots during boot.
+- **Did:** 
+  1. Analyzed Hyprland log output and screenshot OCR text to pinpoint the config error.
+  2. Identified that `class:` regex matching in Hyprland requires `windowrulev2`, but the previous commits incorrectly used `windowrule` causing syntax errors (`invalid field float: missing a value`).
+  3. Replaced `windowrule = [` with `windowrulev2 = [` in `modules/home/hyprland.nix`.
+  4. Updated README.md to document the IPC-based instant reaction for display profiles.
+- **Verified:** Ran `hyprctl configerrors` headlessly and re-captured the VM snapshot which no longer displays the red banner.
+- **Pending:** Wait for the test build to confirm screenshot is clean.
