Sway apps list moved to github
A bunch of IMEs that I'm not sure how much they are wlroot specific or will also work with other compositor. I'm guessing they're all a WIP because the patches for supporting the relevant extensions in wlroots and Sway are not merged yet. hopefully soon. Should we add them to the list? maybe with a WIP tag? These are those I know of: wlpinyin, wlhangul, anthywl,wlanthy, and kime.
