Focus screen: augment the Direction command

[ThomasAdam]

It would be nice if we were able to say:

Direction Screen (North) CursorMove 50 50

Which would (in this example), move the cursor to the middle of the screen.

Likewise:

Direction Screen (East) CursorMove 50 50

Would move the cursor to the monitor to the right of wherever the focus window was.

This would also mean you could make use of the FromPointer option to Direction, as in:

Direction FromPointer Screen (SouthEast) CursorMove 50 50

To do this, we can make use of how fvwm3 already stores the configuration of monitors in monitor_q and map those back to the direction coordinates.

Hence, this would become a "focus screen" command.

With your examples, to me it seems a bit odd to want to add this to the Direction conditional, since there aren't many conditions. Would it be better just to update the CursorMove to have a direction argument instead?

Well, the whole point of the Direction command was for just this sort of scenario.
