Create new "stickyrule" patch

Adds a patch which allows you to create rule to make a matching
application sticky on opening it. I'm still relatively new to this so
apologies if I've done anything wrong, and please do let me know if I
have.

+stickyrule
+==========
+
+Description
+-----------
+This patch allows you to make windows "sticky" by default. This can be useful for applications you need on every tag, e.g. dragon. Note: the [sticky](../sticky) patch needs to be applied before this.
