x11-wm/cwm: Update to 7.9
ChangeLog:
2026-05-19: Tenth public release 7.9 of portable cwm.
Changes made between OpenBSD 7.6 and 7.7:
* Grab the pointer against the root window instead of the client we're
attempting to move and/or resize; prevents XNextEvent() from
blocking on a client that might have been moved to a Withdrawn
state.
Changes made between OpenBSD 7.7 and 7.8:
* Add cwmrc(5) window-snap-center function.
Changes made between OpenBSD 7.8 and 7.9:
* Have cwm(1) handle Meta release as a separate mod key.
MFH: 2026Q2
