[dwm] append window patch - reloaded

I've redesigned the append-window patch to use the grid-patch way instead of
adding a new toggle and keybinding.

- The new patch does not creates the 'apwl' global variable.
- Implements a new symbol (doappend())

Using the META-space key you'll cycle between dotile, doappend and dofloat modes.

What do you think about this patch? it's is ok for mainstream?

The patch looks something like that:

$ echo '#define APPENDSYMBOL "[>="' >> config.h
