Add a remote control command to change colors
Also add a FAQ entry about changing colors in a running kitty instance.
I'm tired of all the bug reports asking for this feature. Apparently,
people find it hard to google for the existing escape codes based
solution.

Allow specifying a system wide kitty config file
The system config is merged with any user specific config files, with
options in the user specific config files having higher priority.

Also follow the full XDG spec for finding config files, including
XDG_CONFIG_DIRS.

update dependencies to run make app
while imagemagick is defined as an optional dependency in the installation section, its presence is indeed mandatory to successfully run `make app` as seen at https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/blob/master/logo/make.py#L27

Sync to monitor refreshes by default
Prevents tearing while scrolling. See #318

Reduce draw calls while processing mouse move events to make latency
while selecting with the mouse acceptable. Also add a config option to
turn off monitor syncing, so people with keyboard repeat rates higher
than their monitor's refresh rate can use it.

Revert "Enable syncing of redraws to monitor refresh rate"
This reverts commit 6a51096304.
Turns out that dynamically changing the swap interval causes bad flicker
when rendering on X11 in a fullscreen window (or more generally, when
only a single X11 window is visible).

Enable syncing of redraws to monitor refresh rate
Now, when large changes, such as scrolling occur, the OpenGL back buffer
swapping is synchronized to the monitor refresh rate (if supported by
the OS). This eliminates tearing artifacts when scrolling the screen fast.

Get rid of the option to use the system wcwidth
The system wcwidth() is often wrong. Not to mention that if you SSH into
a different machine, then you have a potentially different wcwidth. The
only sane way to deal with this is to use the unicode standard.

Fine tune the artificial delays in the render loop
There are now two numbers, repaint_delay and input_delay
that control how often the screen is repainted and how frequently
input received from the child process is processed.

This halves the CPU usage in intensive cases such as scrolling
a file in less. The CPU usage of kitty + X when scrolling is now
significantly lower than all the other terminals on my system.

MROAWR!
