autorandr should consider the state of the lid on laptops #46

I have been using a manual script to manage my randr state, but I recently found this project which seems awesome! However, I have noticed that it doesn't realize the difference between my office_extended and my office layouts.

This is probably because they have the same monitor configuration except for the laptop lid is closed. When the lid is closed, the monitor is not visible. It would be cool if autorandr reflected this.

I would also be open to sending a pull request, but if my help is wanted then I would like to hear how others' would expect this to work so that I develop an inclusive implementation.

Hey probably a little late but I am running a setup close to yours , and yes autorandr doesn't detect the laptop close lid , may I ask how do you manage screens ?
