Patch adding x11-libs/libXft dependency

Since commit 14343e69cc596b847f71f1e825d3019ab1a29aa8, dwm depends on libXft.  Most people installing dwm probably already have libXft installed, but when setting up a new machine, there's a chance that someone would run into this.

It happened to me today on a new installation, when dwm was the first window manager I tried to install

drw.c:6:25: fatal error: X11/Xft/Xft.h: No such file or directory
 #include <X11/Xft/Xft.h>

Just the same here.
