Given a CGDirectDisplayID, you can use
IORegistryEntryCreateCFProperties to get the display properties. In
the returned CFDictionary, the value associated with the
IODisplayPrefsKey remains the same before/after any GPU switch.

I don't know if this is documented anywhere, it's just the result of
my observations.
