📄 Description

Added a new server cli argument --screen-change-script that is invoked with the screen name as the first parameter.

My main use case for barrier is for VMs with GPU passthrough so I use this to switch my monitor input ie.

#!/bin/bash
case "$1" in
    "WIN10")
        notify-send "Changing to guest output"
        sudo ddcutil -d 1 setvcp 0x60 0x01
        ;;
    "desktop")
        notify-send "Changing to host output"
        sudo ddcutil -d 1 setvcp 0x60 0x03
        ;;
esac

This is for linux server only.
