libdockapp: Do not include pathnames in Window Name and Class Properties

Browse source 
Patch by Corin-EU from GitHub [1].

In libdockapps file wmgeneral.c, wname is set from argv[0] and is then used
to set the window name and class resource. Often applications are called with
their full path which then means that the window name has a path in it,
thereby requiring an unwieldy path specific string for "Name" in WMState if
the applet is to be captured in the WM dock.

The simple solution is that wname should be the basename of argv[0] to
ensure that the window name for the applet is the simple and obvious one.
Thus the inclusion of header file libgen.h is required.

Just say "no" to path slashes "/" in window name/class resources ....
