Subject: [PATCH] fix(hyprland): repair master-width, fullscreen, and
 brightness binds

- `$mod+h`/`l` used dwindle's `splitratio`, a no-op in the master layout;
  switch to `mfact` so they actually resize the master area.
- `$mod+f` ran `fullscreen 1` (maximize, bar/gaps kept); swap so `$mod+f` is
  true fullscreen and `$mod SHIFT+f` maximizes.
- add `$mod+space` `swapwithmaster` (dwm-style zoom).
- the `XF86MonBrightness` binds called `brightnessctl`, which was never
  installed; add the package. It writes via the active logind session.
