The input relay owns the float key now: float_toggle (Meta+Shift+F unless the
rules have their own key combinations) floats the window under the pointer, or
the active one over the wallpaper, and docks it if it floats. dock_all puts
every floating window back. Both are mappable to mouse and controller buttons,
and work without pointer mode. The KWin script no longer registers a shortcut,
and ft-floatd drops the old one. Key combinations move to Input Settings'
Keyboard page.
docs/floating-windows.md records the decisions from 2026-09-30 (the title bar
button, Launch as Standalone, profiles), and docs/profiles.md plans profiles.

ft-floatd loads the script into the desktop's KWin, which reports windows
over D-Bus and takes commands through a long poll. Floating a window (the
window menu's Float in VR, Meta+Shift+F, or ft-float) turns on a spare
output sized to the window plus a margin, moves the window onto it, and
tells ft-screens the panel's crop, density, and place; docking puts it
back and turns the spare off. Tested on the headless test desktop; the
panel side in ft-screens comes next.
