Fix power button shutdown by consolidating input handling in screen monitor

Both the evtest-based power monitor and the Python screen monitor were
reading /dev/input/event0 simultaneously, causing missed events on the
device's Linux 4.9 kernel. Moved long-press shutdown into the screen
monitor (which already reads event0 directly) and removed the evtest
dependency entirely.

Screen idle timeout and power button toggle for RG35XX Plus.
Screen idle timeout, power button toggle, and long-press shutdown for RG35XX Plus.
Monitors /dev/input/event{0,1,2} for activity. Turns off the screen
(via Allwinner /dev/disp SET_BRIGHTNESS ioctl) after 15s of no input.
Any button press wakes the screen. A short power button press (<2s)
toggles the screen on/off.
toggles the screen on/off. A long press (3s+) triggers clean shutdown.
Launched by rg35xx-wrapper.sh alongside sdlamp2. Killed on cleanup.
Usage: rg35xx-screen-monitor.py <sdlamp2_pid>
