[bug#42472] [PATCH] Add xstow

[hendursaga]

Hello!

This is my very first patch, so apologies if I messed anything up.

I do not believe it comes with any bundled software that are already 
packaged. It does have an optional dependency of ncurses, for checking 
the width of the terminal, though. I'm not sure how to deal with that, 
if it needs dealing with.

You did not mess up with anything… but I think you forgot to attach the
patch.  :-)

Thanks in advance, and welcome!

I switched email providers; I hope this time the patch will go through.

At present my QEMU setup is buggy, but nckx was able to build it for ARM. Testing on other platforms would be good, as I can't so far.
