Enable or disable the action on modifier release feature

.br
If this feature is enabled, simpleswitcher behaves like this:
Pressing modifier + key will pop up simpleswitcher, holding down modifier and repeatedly pressing key will cycle through the list. Upon release of modifier the selected entry will be focused.
Hitting Escape once turns of the release action. Now entries can be filtered by typing, programs can be started or entries can be cycled through again. Hitting Escape a second time aborts simpleswitcher without any action.
Works only when a modifier key is specified, e.g. mod1+Tab, otherwise simpleswitcher behaves as if the feature is disabled.
.RS
simpleswitcher -release 0
.RE
.TP
.B -index (startindex)
First item in list to be selected when simpleswitcher is called (default: 1).
