[Feature Request] Add drag threshold before a tiled window is unsnapped #126

Describe the feature you'd like
It would be nice if at all possible if there was a (customizable) threshold that would keep windows from being snapped out of their place if one clicks their titlebar while also slightly (and inadvertently) moving the mouse a pixel or two.

Additional context
Whenever I want to select a tiled window, I must also slightly move my mouse or trackball a bit too, which immediately removes the window from its snapped state. I know this is technically user error in that I shouldn't be moving the mouse at all when clicking down, but it's a very small amount of movement I must inadvertently make, that in other situations (like selecting a file in Nautilus, or a tab in Firefox) doesn't really cause any issues as there's a bit of a threshold in those cases before a "drag" condition is triggered.

For me personally it would be more than enough if that threshold is hard-coded like it is with the aforementioned Nautilus and Firefox examples, but I can also imagine that some people might want this a toggle-able or otherwise adjustable setting — if it's possible to implement at all, of course.

Thank you so very much for making this! I'm new to using your extension, but I love what I'm seeing so far. Very nice!
