fix vertical monitor transitions & 'failed to load cache' errors
Fixed Issues:
- Transitions on vertical monitor's were having issues
[WARN] failed to load cache: there is already another swww process runningerrors on wallpaper changes
Discussion: Wallpaper changing animations do not work on vertical monitor
have not written rust, I am not sure if this causes issues with https://github.com/LGFae/swww/commit/56928f7c0e55a321ad5a83a039e0e0dc3eeac35b
I believe the problem with this is that it wouldn't reload the image if the output's configuration changed. That was the original reason for that commit.
I also do not understand how this could possibly be the solution to #386. There seems to be a more fundamental issue we have to address.

Not sure, the issue did not exist before https://github.com/LGFae/swww/commit/56928f7c0e55a321ad5a83a039e0e0dc3eeac35b I feel it would be better to remove the problem code and try fix what was intended by https://github.com/LGFae/swww/commit/56928f7c0e55a321ad5a83a039e0e0dc3eeac35b (refreshing when monitor input changes) a different way over trying to fix the issue https://github.com/LGFae/swww/commit/56928f7c0e55a321ad5a83a039e0e0dc3eeac35b caused. I.e listening to actual wayland events, rather than constantly polling for whether the 'surface has changed', which is what it seems like its doing currently, and causing a memory leak.
there is also a memory leak if transitions get overwritten midway through (changing the wallpaper too quickly) but that is a separate issue to these ones.
It seems to be working now (after upgrading to Hyprland 47), so I closed the original. Unfortunately so many things broke in hyprland 47 for me that I will be switching back to 46 for now, meaning I have to live with the animations.
