sway: Use single kitty instance
Note that maintaining both sway and bspwm is inconvenient, so I may
eventually cut one of them for ease of living.

meta: Add swayidle
This lets us automatically start swaylock on lid close, useful when on
the go, although not a replacement for turning off a computer fully.

Wayland.

sway: Use dunst as the notification daemon
Since dunst now supports both xorg and wayland, we can use it in sway
as well.

sway: Hide the cursor when inactive
Now sway behaves similarly to unclutter on bspwm/xorg, and we don't have
to worry about moving the cursor out of the way since it automatically
disappears.

sway: Add alt tab support
This is similar to bspwm, except new workspaces aren't automatically
created and empty workspaces are skipped.

Although creating a script to handle this should be possible, sway
doesn't offer any real benefits to me since bspwm does everything that
sway can do with the addition of input method, image preview, and other
features being better supported on xorg.

To reiterate, I like the idea behind sway, however I am more fluent with
bspwm and xorg and prefer how windows are managed in bspwm. For software
that only works on wayland, sway is a lightweight alternative to
committing to a full-featured desktop environment like GNOME.

sway: Use same reload/exit keybinds as bspwm
This makes things a little easier to remember.

sway: Add keybind to toggle waybar
Now we can toggle waybar in sway similar to how we can toggle polybar in
bspwm.

sway: Exit resize mode the same way it was entered
Now resize mode behaves a little more sane.

sway: Simplify process of killing windows
$mod+q is much easier to press than $mod+shift+q.

sway: Use kitty instead of alacritty
Although alacritty is cool, kitty is also cool and has image support,
ideal for rice screenshots.

This commit also adds $alt for the rofi command in the previous commit.

Use rofi in sway
Note that although there was an issue with window focus, rofi works fine
for the most part and gets the job done.

sway: Change background to one from archlinux-wallpaper
After the contest for archlinux-wallpaper, there are a lot of high
quality backgrounds that one can choose from. Instead of worrying
about choosing an appropriate background for a desktop environment,
one can simply use archlinux-wallpaper instead.

Note that F9-F11 currently don't report anything in xev, although we can
program the rest of the keys here.

sway: Remove arrow key stuff
It's much easier to simply use hjkl, so I'm removing the arrow key
shortcuts to avoid any conflicts.

Add sway
Note that I'm adding sway with the default config first so I can keep a
record of my changes with git.
