Debug xrandr integration to support 4k monitor
Two things:
1. I'm unsure if what I previously committed ever worked because the arguments
to `string/format` were flipped.
2. I'm unsure why my screen devices are sometimes eDP-1 and eDP1.

Perhaps expect more commits as this becomes more clear to me.
