Currently, modules polling hardware nodes continuously wake up kernel drivers even when the monitor is asleep (e.g., DPMS off), flooding dmesg.
- Adds 'disable-on-sleep' config flag
- Hooks GTK window map/unmap signals to track DPMS state
- Propagates suspend/resume calls to AModule worker threads
Move the UTF-8 visual-width measurement and truncation helper functions
from the mpris module to a common utility
(include/util/utf8_string.hpp and src/util/utf8_string.cpp).
This decouples string truncation and width measurement
from the mpris module, allowing other modules (like mpd) to reuse.
The helper function `utf8_truncate` (formerly `truncate` in mpris)
and `utf8_width` is exported under the `waybar::util` namespace,
while the low-level `measure_and_truncate` (formerly `utf8_truncate`)
is encapsulated in an anonymous namespace in src/util/utf8_string.cpp
to avoid unnecessary API exposure.
No functional changes were made to the mpris module's behavior.
This allows users to use #RRGGBBAA format in their style.css.
The client now detects 8-bit hex codes, transforms them into
GTK-compatible rgba() syntax, and loads the modified data
into the CSS provider.
- Added utility to detect 8-bit hex patterns.
- Added transformation logic to convert hex alpha to decimal.
- Intercepted CSS loading in Client::setupCss to handle the conversion.
- Replaced pass-by-value std::string parameters with const std::string&
or std::string_view to prevent SSO overallocations.
- Refactored static mapping functions in UPower to return
std::string_view instead of constructing std::string literals, enabling
perfect cache locality.
- Optimized string concatenation in hot loops (network IPs, inhibitor
lists, sway window marks) by using std::string::append() and
pre-reserving capacity instead of overloaded operator+ which produces
temporary heap instances.
These optimizations reduce high-frequency memory churn and overall heap
fragmentation within the main rendering loops.

Child exec failure paths were returning success, which masked command launch
errors from callers.
I switched the child-side failure exits to _exit(127) and added errno-specific
logging so failures propagate with actionable diagnostics.

SafeSignal could queue events forever when worker threads emitted faster than
the main loop could consume, which risks memory growth and stale updates.
I added a queue cap with a drop-oldest policy so growth stays bounded under
burst load, plus a regression test that validates bounded delivery.

SleeperThread control flags were shared across threads without consistent
synchronization.
I converted the run/signal flags to atomics and updated wait predicates and
lifecycle transitions to use explicit atomic loads/stores.

Reassigning SleeperThread could replace a joinable std::thread and trigger
std::terminate.
I now stop and join any existing worker before reassignment, then reset control
state before starting the replacement worker.

If you have reload_style_on_change enabled, and use dynamic appearance
styling (style-dark.css and style-light.css), then changing the
appearance doesn't update the files that are being watched for reload.
Add a method to CssReloadHelper to change the CSS file being watched,
and also provide the CSS file as a parameter to the callback so setupCss
can be called on the right file when the file watcher triggers.
