Support dotoolc #179

@vldmtr

Description

@vldmtr

Keepmenu already supports dotool type library.

Dotool can run a long-running instance to prevent creating a virtual device every time it runs:

https://git.sr.ht/~geb/dotool/tree/HEAD/doc/dotool.1.scd

LONG-RUNNING INSTANCE

Each instance of dotool has an initial delay registering the virtual
devices, but you can keep writing actions to a long-running instance. The
daemon and client, dotoold and dotoolc, let you do this with a pipe
behind the scenes, for example:

dotoold &
echo type super | dotoolc
echo type speedy | dotoolc

keepmenu works great with dotoolc using just a symlink 'dotool -> dotoolc', but such approach brakes dotoold daemon restart after host reboot.

It would be nice to support dotoolc natively in keepmenu config/code.
