naughty: add getIcon() to find icons with basename

Adds:
   config.icon_dirs {}
   config.icon_formats {}

"It adds the ability to search for icons in specified folders. This
is necessary for some applications using dbus like the firefox dbus
plugin."

To test it: naughty.notify{ icon = 'firefox' }
