With the default scale = "auto", sync_internal_scale read the config,
rejected "auto" as non-numeric, fell back to the hardcoded default 2,
and force-applied it whenever the compositor's auto resolution differed.
Since the script runs from omarchy-system-wake after every idle cycle,
the panel flapped between 2 and auto's own value (1.5666667 on a 198 DPI
panel) on every wake/reload pair.
A config without a usable number -- "auto", or an expression only
Hyprland's Lua can evaluate -- delegates the scale to the compositor:
whatever it resolved for the enabled panel is the configured scale, so
there is nothing to correct. Recovery of a disabled panel is unchanged
and still re-enables it with the remembered scale, falling back to the
historical default 2.
Fixes#7265. Also the scale-revert half of #7301.

A pinned internal monitor rule that referenced the omarchy_monitor_scale local
had the variable name captured as the scale, so clamshell recovery fell all the
way to the hardcoded 2.
Read the config the way Hyprland writes it: a key's value is whatever sits
between the `=` and the next separator, and a bare word resolves against a local
only when one exists, so a quoted string stays a string. Comments are cut before
anything is matched, and position gets the same resolution since it had the
identical bug.
