This upgrades the pango patch to:
https://dwm.suckless.org/patches/pango/dwm-pango-20230520-e81f17d.diff
The changes are fixes for some vertical alignment issues that were obvious only for CJK fonts.
The implementation in dwm-flexipatch is still simplified compared to the original patch, e.g.
avoiding changes like drw->fonts to drw->font and many similar function signatures.
The Makefile used to suppress output (by using @), so this target made sense at
the time.
But the Makefile should be simple and make debugging with less abstractions or
fancy printing. The Makefile was made verbose and doesn't hide the build
output, so remove this target.
Prompted by a question on the mailing list about the options target.

restore SIGCHLD sighandler to default before spawning a program
From sigaction(2):
A child created via fork(2) inherits a copy of its parent's signal dispositions.
During an execve(2), the dispositions of handled signals are reset to the default;
the dispositions of ignored signals are left unchanged.
This refused to start directly some programs from configuring in config.h:
static Key keys[] = {
MODKEY, XK_o, spawn, {.v = cmd } },
};
Some reported programs that didn't start were: mpv, anki, dmenu_extended.
Reported by pfx.
Initial patch suggestion by Storkman.

Changes to core utils had the side effect of treating the no-clobber option
as an error if the file was not copied if it already exists, thus causing
make to error as well.
Adding this workaround until that issue is addressed.
Alternative solutions:
- always overwrite the file using the -f / --force option
- prefix the cp command with a hyphen which will cause make to ignore
the error, but still report it
- never copy dwm.desktop during the installation process
* Add swallow/window icon compatibility. Without this, after a client is
swallowed the old icon (usually from the terminal emulator) is
preserved. This is noticeable if you, say run `mpv` from a terminal
emulator which is a common use case.
