brand new UrgencyHook contrib, depends on X11-extras WMHints binding

It's a LayoutModifier which lets you define an urgencyHook function -- the
action gets performed wheneveran X client sends an XUrgencyHint message (i.e.
tries to "flash" the "taskbar").

This statically points to Config.urgencyHook, which requires that the user add
a line to Config.hs-boot, in addition to defining the urgencyHook.

Documentation forthcoming.
