"Variable refresh rate: not supported" but monitor is MediaSync certified #3963

Description

Hello!
My monitor, an Asus PA329CRV, supports VRR through the MediaSync certification (and MediaSync is enabled in the monitor's settings), howerver niri msg outputs returns "Variable refresh rate: not supported".

This is how my 3 monitors are configured:

output "HDMI-A-1" {
    mode "2560x1440@59.951"
    scale 1
    position x=0 y=1446
    variable-refresh-rate
}

output "DP-1" {
    mode "1920x1080@143.981"
    scale 1
    position x=640 y=364
    variable-refresh-rate
    focus-at-startup
    hot-corners {
        off
    }
}

output "DP-4" {
    mode "3840x2160@60.000"
    scale 1.25
    position x=2560 y=0
    variable-refresh-rate
}

VRR works properly on my other monitors (HDMI-A-1 and DP-1), but not on DP-4.
By the way, thank you for the amazing work on Niri!
