docs(niri): portable desk runs landscape, HDMI left of the laptop

Browse Source 
record the normalized layout that landed on main as 9b88208 and the law
that surprised it: positions are absolute, so rotating a panel widens
its logical box and every x to the right of it moves — recompute the
row, never just the rotated block.

HDMI-A-1 sits to the LEFT of the laptop by request (2026-10-30); DP-2 keeps the
right. Earlier the same rig ran both panels in portrait (rot 90, 1200x1920) with
the laptop and both panels to its right — the rotation is `normal` now, so the
panels are 1920 wide and every x moved.
``` ```
Positions are absolute in logical space, so rotating a panel changes its logical
width (1200 → 1920) and every x to its right; recompute the whole row, never just
the rotated block.
All three blocks are identity-keyed and pin their mode string verbatim. The All three blocks are identity-keyed and pin their mode string verbatim. The
