x11-wm/bspwm-devel: Enable CONTRIB option by default

The CONTRIB option ships a bunch of files which the average user might expect
to just get by default (most notably a .desktop file). The .desktop file
allows display managers following the freedesktop.org standards to discover
bspwm automatically.
