feat: size: prefix, external auto-detection, auto-disable stale monitors

- size:WxH and size:WxH@R resolution for config names
- auto-detection of external monitors when external list is empty (any non-internal display)
- ensureCleanLayout: explicitly disable connected monitors not in target layout
- update docs (README, example.yaml) for all three features
