Add support for opening Xcursor files
Sadly, they don't have a canonical extension, and they don't show up
in the browser.  We might want to employ some level of sniffing.
The first 16 bytes are enough to identify a lot.

fastiv
======
'fastiv' is a fast image viewer, supporting BMP, PNG, GIF, JPEG, and optionally
RAW and SVG pictures, or whatever gdk-pixbuf loads. Currently, it's very basic.
Non-goals
---------
- fancy UI--the focus is on speed of use first, colour accuracy second
- memory efficiency, though preloading can cause some pressure
- portability to non-UNIXy systems
Packages
--------
Regular releases are sporadic. git master should be stable enough. You can get
a package with the latest development version from Archlinux's AUR.
