make client close configurable

[netfun81]

Is it possible to add an option in config.go for a selectable shortcut key to close client windows? I find that the triple click of the right mouse button is sometimes inconsistent. Since you are now using the Mod key with the mouse for operations this allows use of the Left and Middle mouse buttons also. Maybe make mod+left drag=move, mod+middle=close, and mod+right drag=floating?

I started use mod key because I started use drawterm to log to the plan9
system which heavily uses right mouse button. This is fast workaround for
my current needs. Maybe using forward button on 5 button mouse will be
better option but I haven't such mouse in all places I work. If you use
mdtwm (I don't think that anyone but me uses it) you can return to
previous behavior.

Mouse handling should be completely rewritten because it was created as
fast hack to see how this concept works. I have no time to rewrite it, so
I still live with current implementation.

It is possible to add any keyboard command to the config but mdtwm was
intended to be mouse-driven wm. I added closeCurrentCommand to show that
this is very simple thing. In default config it is binded to Mod+C. See
the last commit.

Thanks!  I like your window manager.  I like being able to make unique layouts per desk and drag windows around between them.  It's different than most tiling window managers.  Hopefully in the future you will have time to keep developing it. 

Cheers
