Brian Ashworth 9bac7e6558 swaymsg.1: add tip about two hyphens for commands
This adds a tip to the command section about using two hyphens before a
command to signal that no swaymsg options will follow to allow for sway
commands with leading hyphens.

Brian Ashworth a8a239e2f1 swaymsg: return 2 for sway errors
This mirrors a change in i3 4.17 that returns 2 for errors from sway,
including invalid command, command failed, and invalid subscription
requests

Peter Grayson b7fe5097e9 Add -p/--pretty option to swaymsg
This new option forces pretty (non-raw/non-JSON) output. By default, when
not using a tty, swaymsg outputs using the "raw" format. This makes it
impossible to, for example, pipe the pretty output to a pager such as
`less` since piping does not use a tty.

The new -p/--pretty option gives the user explicit control over the output
format while retaining the default tty-dependent behavior.

Brian Ashworth bf9a52bab0 Implement support for swaymsg -t SUBSCRIBE [-m]
In `i3 4.16`, `i3-msg` can be used with the message type `subscribe`
and has the ability to monitor for responses until killed. This adds
support for both to swaymsg.

If the JSON array of event types is malformed or contains an invalid
event, sway will send a response with `success` set to `false`. If
swaymsg sees this, it will not display the failure and exit.

If the `subscribe` event is successful, swaymsg will wait for the first
response and display that instead of the success message. If
`-m/--monitor` is given, swaymsg will continue monitor for responses
until killed or a malformed response is received.

For the `subscribe` event, the responses will always be printed as JSON.
If `-r/--raw` is given, the JSON will not be pretty printed, which may
be preferred when monitoring due to there being multiple responses.

Example: `swaymsg -t SUBSCRIBE -m "['window']"`
