[dev] [dwm] an update of the moveresize patch

Hi, I find it useful to move and resize windows without the mouse in dwm. Here's a revision of an old patch that was out there. Mine is based on 5.6.1. Caveat emptor: I'm not sure about some of the innards of dwm. I have some comments in the code below which I'd like answers to, if anyone
