Multiple execution of commands

[MidnightNerd]

Hello,
this code should allow users to execute code multiple times when making a swipe gesture.

There are some things that need to be mentioned:
1. CPU load is slightly higher than in previous version. The impact on battery life isn't notable on modern machines.
2. The config file must specify the number of fingers. The config syntax is: gesture swipe direction numFingers Threshold command.
-->Maybe its better to add a new command for the config file.
3. The command will be executed one time more at the end of the gesture. (this is fixed)

Edit: here are two example configuration lines to try this feature(Volume control):
#Swipe with 4 fingers up or down to increase/decrease Volume
timeout 5
gesture swipe up 4 40 xdotool key XF86AudioRaiseVolume
gesture swipe down 4 40 xdotool key XF86AudioLowerVolume

Maybe this is not really clear:
This Patch is not for executing a specific command at the end of a swipe gesture multiple times,
this Patch executes a command while the gesture is done.

I merged @MidnightNerd's code into the latest master on my Arch machine and installed it. Swipe to adjust volume works perfectly - thanks, @MidnightNerd!

For other Arch users, I modified the libinput-gestures PKGBUILD from AUR to use the local git repo where I merged MidnightNerd's code into the latest master:

< pkgver=2.62
---
> pkgver=2.70

< source=("$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz::$url/archive/$pkgver.tar.gz")
---
>   source=("git+file:///home/david/repos/libinput-gestures/src/$pkgname")

---

<   cd "$pkgname-$pkgver"
---
>   cd "$pkgname"

THANK YOU!

Finally got around to trying this vs. the old one. This works perfectly and it's exactly what I wanted!

Why is this pull request still opened if it was merged?

[MidnightNerd]

i do not have much experience with git. As far as i can see the code wasn't merged.
