Mô tả
First of all, thank you for developing `auto-cpufreq` — it’s an excellent tool for dynamic CPU frequency scaling.
Currently, several desktop environments (DEs) provide a **power mode/slider integration** in their system tray or settings panels. These sliders usually work with `power-profiles-daemon` or `tuned-ppd`, allowing users to switch between modes such as *Performance*, *Balanced*, and *Power Saver*.
It would be great if `auto-cpufreq` could integrate with these power sliders across DEs.
## Benefits
- Unified user experience across desktop environments.
- Quick and intuitive switching between `auto-cpufreq` profiles without relying on CLI.
- Encourages wider adoption since many users prefer GUI-driven controls.
## Examples of DE Integration Points
- **KDE Plasma** – System Tray Power Management Slider (via `powerdevil`).
- **GNOME** – Settings → Power Mode toggle (exposed via `power-profiles-daemon`).
- **XFCE** – Power Manager panel plugin.
- **Cinnamon / MATE / Budgie** – Power applets that already use PPD as backend.
## Possible Implementation Approaches
- Allow `auto-cpufreq` to **expose its profiles via D-Bus**, making them visible to DEs in the same way as `power-profiles-daemon`.
- Provide an **optional compatibility layer** that lets DEs treat `auto-cpufreq` as if it were `power-profiles-daemon` or `tuned-ppd`.
- Offer a **configurable mapping** of `auto-cpufreq` modes to standard power profiles.

### **Feature Request Summary**
Add integration between `auto-cpufreq` and desktop environment power sliders (KDE, GNOME, XFCE, etc.) by exposing profiles through a standard interface (e.g., D-Bus, PPD compatibility), similar to how `power-profiles-daemon` and `tuned-ppd` work. I just really like the look and feel of KDE's powerdevil
