I had issues with the kiosk mode not working on a raspberry Pi 3 + Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 5" running the future 3 release on bookworm lite.

This PR is a fix that works for this setup since it is the only one I can test it on. I tried to preserve the old flow as well for older raspbian distros.
This new kioskmode is only used on bookworm.

What it includes:

  • Uses wayland instead of X11
  • includes swayidle and a default timeout of 10 minutes ➡️ the display get dark after 10 minutes but can be woken up by touching it
  • Configures a scaling factor that (for my taste fits for the 5" Raspberry Pi Display

I appreciate any comment or suggestions for improvement.

Thanks for the PR!

Could I suggest to make the scaling factor and the idle timeout configurable here?

Otherwise one would need to change the sources, if they want to change these settings.

Making scaling factor and idle timeout configurable would be appreciated.
