Fallout 4 How to cap FPS
As written, your suggestion is unhelpful. The name of the project that provides the strangle command is libstrangle. Without that full name (or better yet, a link) it would be darn near impossible to find.

pc remaster collection, fps limit?
If you're comfortable with terminal use you could also try https://gitlab.com/torkel104/libstrangle

Any differences between DXVK_FRAME_RATE, mangohud's fps_limit, libstrangle, and gamescope's -r, especially in regards to input lag and frame stability?
Libstrangle. The options for it, at least for vsync, seem extremely similar to Mangohud's settings in GOverlay, so this may be doing the exact same thing.

Lock frames to, say, 45fps and downclock the screen to 45hz?
https://github.com/milaq/libstrangle with this you can limit the gpu to run an easy 45 fps. The monitors Hertz rate you can set in Linux, depending on what the screen will be capable of.
