Regression fixes:
- Restore the old behaviour that the primary doesn't get deleted by a simple
left click. Thanks, Daniel Tameling.
- Fix regression from commit 69e32a6 when setting the title. Thanks, quinq.
Fixes:
- Fix use after free, this code was always fragile, but triggered using the
rewritten code.
- Don't modify argv: on some platforms (OpenBSD) arg.h used to change the
exposed argv in tools using the kvm_* interface, such as ps and pgrep.

There are many features and code that has been rewritten. Particulary
noteworthy is now a more clear separation of the X11/Xft code and the terminal
emulator logic.
Some peole have shown interest in writing a Wayland port, writing specific
(fuzz) tests for the terminal emulator or reusing the terminal emulator code.
Changes:
* Big input and output to the escape code parser have been fixed. This was an
addition to the copy and paste fix of the last release.
* Many comments to the config.def.h were added to make the complexity of
terminals easier to grasp. Terminals are still complex and not easy to
understand.
* -T is the same as -t for compatibility reasons - to set the title of the
window.
* You can now define the mouse shape, mouse background and mouse foreground
color.
* Fixes in the UTF-8 wide character handling were applied.
* Invalid UTF-8 characters are handled better.
* There is now more documentation for the -l option, which is the way to make
st directly connect to some other pseudo terminal or a serial line.
* You can now send a break to the terminal.
* The default stty args have been changed. Look into the source for details,
if you depend on them in your setup.
* The default font is now using antialias and autohint.
* The libXext dependency has been removed.
* Some eastereggs were added. You may find them easily.
* -n has been introduced for setting the application class. This is useful for
complex st setups in dwm.
* Some backspace fixes. Please still not forget to read up all the history
books on backspace behaviour of the time and in different implementations
before you file any bug on it. This is a requirement.
* DPI handling is optimized.
Many patches were incorporated by many contributes. Thank you for help-
ing making st the tool which makes our life easier!
