keyboard: add window rule to send release-events (#2377)

Browse source 
...of modifiers which are part of keybinds. This supports clients (for
example blender) that want to see modifier-release-events even if they are
part of a keybinds.

Most clients (including those using Qt and GTK) are setup to not see these
modifier release events and actually misbehave if they do.  For example
Firefox shows the menu bar if alt is pressed and then released, whereas if
only pressed (because the release is absorbed) nothing happens. So, if
Firefox saw bound modifier-release-events it would show the menu bar every
time the window-switcher is used with alt-tab.

*<windowRules><windowRule wantAbsorbedModifierReleaseEvents="">* [yes|no|default]
*wantAbsorbedModifierReleaseEvents* allows clients to receive modifier
release events even if they are part of keybinds. Most clients should
not receive these, but some (for example blender) need it in some
situations.
