Fixes a compatibility issue with i3 where resizing works as described
hereafter:
> Direction can either be one of up, down, left or right. Or you can be
> less specific and use width or height, in which case i3 will take/give
> space from all the other containers.
Sway previously considered only the direct neighbours, not all siblings.
Fixes#5936
Replace the XWayland-only class attribute in the examples:
- The first example given should work for Wayland-native windows.
- The example 'Kill all windows with the title "Emacs"' should use
title, not class. Also, it's a substring (regex) match.
There are many different implementations of regular expressions with
incompatible syntax. For example, GNU grep alone provides three
different ones. Clarify the use of PCRE2 by sway criteria.

Adds a bool config option `primary_selection`, which explicitly
enables/disables the primary selection clipboard. Defaults to enabled.
This is implemented as a launch-only option which enables or disables the creation of the
`zwp_primary_selection_device_manager_v1` global.

Add a subcommand for `smart_gaps` that enables outer gaps only
on workspaces with exactly one visible child.
Also add documentation for `smart_gaps toggle`.
Add a subcommand for `gaps` that allows to toggle gaps at
runtime. This functionality is part of i3-gaps since [1]
but is missing in sway.

In i3, the workspace_layout command does not affect the
workspace layout. Instead, new workspace level containers
are wrapped in the desired layout and the workspace layout
always defaults to the output orientation.
Add a separate per-view shortcuts_inhibitor command that can be used
with criteria to override the per-seat defaults. This allows to e.g.
disable shortcuts inhibiting globally but enable it for specific,
known-good virtualization and remote desktop software or, alternatively,
to blacklist that one slightly broken piece of software that just
doesn't seem to get it right but insists on trying.
Add a flag to sway_view and handling logic in the input manager that
respects that flag if configured but falls back to per-seat config
otherwise. Add the actual command but with just enable and disable
subcommands since there's no value in duplicating the per-seat
activate/deactivate/toggle logic here. Split the inhibitor retrieval
helper in two so we can use the backend half in the command to retrieve
inhibitors for a specific surface and not just the currently focused
one. Extend the manual page with documentation of the command and
references to its per-seat sibling and usefulness with criteria.

This allows e.g. triggering one command while a key is held, then
triggering another to undo the change performed by it afterwards. One
use case for this is triggering push-to-talk functionality for VoIP
tools without granting them full access to all input events.
Fixes#3151
Before the default was "smart". This means a visible app could steal focus
whenever it wanted to. This can be an issue since having focus allows for
e.g. clipboard access.
This commit changes the default to "urgent" instead.
