Details

According to the release notes for sway 1.4 the default configuration uses Alacritty as the terminal emulator.

In order to reflect this change I suggest tochange the dependency for `rxvt-unicode` to `alacritty` to enable an 'out-of-the-box' experience for a fresh install of sway with its opt. deps.

Plus alacritty uses wayland by default what makes it a nicer fit for sway anyway.
This task depends upon
