Dock Replacement under Wayland

[Michael Butash]

Unfortunately not, cairo-dock just segfaults out under wayland, and Latte
dock is still about as useless as ever, it can't even figure out how to
exist on non-primary display, then it just disappears.

Sadly there just aren't many actually good docks out there, cairo is
literally the only one worth a damn for me, and yay me, it's now broken.
