Adding vi_mode patch to dmenu
This patch brings (limited) vi mode capabilities to dmenu via the -vi flag.
Implementation has been done in such a way that existing dmenu scripts
do not have to include the -vi flag to make use of the features.

+vi-mode
+=======
+Description
+-----------
+With this patch dmenu will have basic vi mode capabilities.
+
+Implemented actions
+-------------------
+* movements inside typed text with `[h|l|w|b|e|0|$]`
+* movements through list with `[j|k|g|G]`
+* standard insertions with `[a|A|i|I]`
+* paste after|before cursor with `[p|P]`, use `ctrl` to use clipboard
+* delete from cursor to eol with `D`
+* delete the character under cursor with `x`
+
+*Note* `Enter` and `Tab` work like normal
+
+Flags
+-----
+When `-vi` is passed `Esc` will now put you into `normal mode` instead of
+quitting `dmenu`.
+
+Customization
+-------------
+This patch defines two `Key` structs made up of a `KeySym` and `ModMask`.
+
+The first is a single `Key` variable `global_esc` set to `{ XK_n, Mod1Mask }`.
+
+The second is an array variable `quit_keys`. These keys will be used to quit
+`dmenu` when using `vi_mode`. If `-vi` was passed this will be the only way to
+quit `dmenu` besides using `C-c`.
+
+Set `vi_mode` in `config[.def].h` to `1` to enable `vi_mode` wherever you use
+`dmenu`. This will not change the behavior of `Esc`. Instead your key defined
+under `global_esc` will be respected. This is useful as you don't have to change
+all your scripts to include the `-vi` flag. `vi_mode` is set to `1` by default.
+
+Set `start_mode` to `1` if you want to start in `normal mode` when the `-vi`
+flag is passed. Set to `0` by default so that you start in `insert mode`.
+
+There is a new color scheme included in this patch. It is an inversion of
+`SchemeNorm` called `SchemeCursor`
