fix(hyprland): resolve desc: monitor names before generating config

Extract shared resolveMonitorNames to backend package so both
Hyprland and Sway backends resolve desc: prefixed names to actual
connector names before applying monitor layout.

Previously the Hyprland backend wrote desc:... literally into
monitors.conf, which Hyprland ignores, causing monitors to be
positioned incorrectly or not configured at all.
