2015-11-25criteria: Add. Learn for_window command.S. Christoffer Eliesen
A criteria is a string in the form of `[class="regex.*" title="str"]`. It is stored in a struct with a list of *tokens* which is a attribute/value pair (stored as a `crit_token` struct). Most tokens will also have a precompiled regex stored that will be used during criteria matching. for_window command: When a new view is created its metadata is tested against all stored criteria, and if a match is found the associated command list is executed. Unfortunately some metadata is not available in sway at the moment (specifically `instance`, `window_role` and `urgent`). Any criteria string that tries to match an unsupported attribute will fail. (Note that while the criteria code can be used to parse any criteria string it is currently only used by the `for_window` command.)
