Allow specifying program flags after the program

Browse Source 
This not working has caused a lot of confusion. Not only is -f not necessary,
but the implementation is worse than just allowing flags after the program.
Deprecate the -f flag. Stop evaling a string; build an array of program options
instead.

Addresses various issues: #6, #17, #52, etc.

The positional argument should be the name of a program in =$PATH= (as opposed to the full path to a program) and should not contain any flags (see =-f= if you want to pass additional flags to the program when running it). It should always be the last argument.
The positional argument should be the name of a program in =$PATH= (as opposed to the full path to a program). It should always come after any tdrop flags. Flags for the program can come after it (e.g. ~tdrop urxvt -title foo~).
** Basic Flags
=-w= / =--width=, =-h= / =--height=, =-x= / =--xoff=, and =-y= / =--yoff= can be used to set the window size/position. The argument to any of these can be a number (e.g. =-w 800=) or a percentage (e.g. =-w 100%=). Negative numbers correspond to that many pixels less than 100% of the screen width (e.g. =-w -4=).

It also has the ability to automatically hide and automatically show dropdowns. For example, it can be used to automatically hide a terminal when opening something from it, e.g. an image viewer, video player, etc. Tdrop can then automatically bring back the terminal whenever the image view, video player, etc. is closed. See the Examples section for more information.
.SH Commands
Tdrop expects the name of a program or 'current' (to use the current window) as the last argument to create a dropdown. Alternatively, it can take one of auto_show, auto_hide, or toggle_auto_hide. Neither functionality is particularly useful called directly from the command line; the former should be bound to a key, and the latter is better used in shell functions/aliases or with a file opener (e.g. in the rifle.conf).

Specify a command that will determine whether the current window is floating ($wid can be used in the command instead). Only used for the auto_hide command. This will be used to save whether the current window is floating or not. When restoring the window, if there is a float command and the window was previously floating, it will be floated.
