Screenshot utility improvements (maimpick) (#1114)
* maimpick delay for proper screenshots

An extra delay is needed for {window, full}-screenshots to prevent the
dmenu prompt from showing; example attached.

As of this writing I'm thinking the delay may vary depending on several
factors, to name a few... dmenu patches, compositor animations, etc.

* refactor to extract commonly used commands
