Add always_switch optional config for Acer monitors that don't correctly report they are on the usb-c input #141

Some Acer monitors continue to report that they are on DisplayPort1 when they've been switched to the usb-c input (using DisplayPort2). This fork adds a config setting so that display_switch can force a switch attempt even if the monitor is lying to us.

I don't know if you accept PRs, but feel free.
