wayland support to the watcher1.0 #18

Right now watcher has X11 support. The active window name is accessed through the dependency "xdotool" So try to find dependency for Wayland support as well.

As per this discussion I found on Stack Overflow, it will probably be difficult to add Wayland support. AFAIK, any workaround would be implementation specific. ActivityWatch too does not yet support Wayland as there is no standard API

Oh then for now we can postpone this Wayland support. @ujjwal123123 If you want to work on macOS support then have a look #19.
