[wmii] small patch for wmiimenu.c

Hi,

I've noticed that sometimes when calling wmiimenu and beginning to type just after, the first characters are ignored by wmiimenu and thus sent to the selected client. This can be quite annoying especially with clients like vi.
Thus I've made a simple patch, putting the XKeyGrab call as early as possible in main (so just after the initialization of dpy).
It worked for me and I don't think it could cause any problems on other systems.

Here's the patch (hg diff on the lastest hg):
