Adds displayServer field to detect which graphical display server is currently active. This helps identify the graphics stack being used and whether the system is running in GUI or headless mode. Supported display servers: - wayland, x11 (Linux/BSD) - quartz (macOS) - dwm (Windows) - surfaceflinger (Android) Returns empty string for headless/console sessions on all platforms.

What do you think about this feature?
I've tested this on Linux successfully. The implementation for macOS, Windows, and Android is based on documented behavior (pgrep WindowServer, tasklist for dwm.exe, surfaceflinger process), but I haven't been able to test these platforms myself.
The code is designed to be robust - all platform checks are wrapped in try-catch blocks and default to returning an empty string on errors, so nothing should break even if the detection fails.
