Merge pull request 'feat(displays): monitors w/ resolution+refresh in Inventory; flag sub-max refresh in Health — 0.39.0' (#43) from feat/displays into main

+## [0.39.0] - 2026-05-22
+### Added
+- **Displays in the Inventory.** A new `core/displays.py` lists each connected monitor with its
+  resolution and current/max refresh — e.g. `DP-1 · Samsung LC34G55T → 3440x1440 @ 165 Hz`. Reads
+  GNOME's Mutter `DisplayConfig` over D-Bus (works on X11 *and* Wayland), falling back to `xrandr`
+  on other X11 desktops.
+- **System Health flags monitors below their max refresh.** If a monitor supports a higher refresh
+  at its current resolution (e.g. a 165 Hz panel set to 60 Hz — an easily-missed gaming setting),
+  Health reports it with the fix (raise it in Display settings). Max is computed at the *current*
+  resolution, so it never suggests dropping resolution.
+
 ## [0.38.0] - 2026-05-22
 ### Added
 - **PCIe link in the Inventory.** Each NVMe drive now shows its negotiated PCIe link next to the
