Output/display configuration tool (xrandr) replacements aside from wlroots

[kolAflash]

The listed xrandr replacements for output/display configuration tool mostly seem to work only with wlroots based compositors as Sway or Wayfire. Because wlroots is yet the only Wayland implementation providing the wlr-output-management-unstable-v1 API.

But KDE (kwin) and GNOME (mutter) don't support wlr-output-management-unstable-v1. So other tools are needed for these.
Yes, Wayland implementations are a fragmentation mess...
