Description:
currently, idle detection does not work - the work continues even if the computer is in use. When idle detection debugging for logging is activated, it shows an access error, which blocks the detection.

This task depends upon
"Revamped the idle detection after pouring over documentation. This new code should be able to handle all local Xservers as they come and go. Issue with permitting access to Xservers from boinc user resolved (see comments; package managers may include appropriate file in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/, otherwise boinc ignores inaccessible DISPLAYs). Pushing for CI checks. Not finished though. This commit has generic debug output that would clutter the event log. I want to add a debug flag and only dump this (noisy, once-per-second) output if the user explicitly asks for it via configuration file."
