Tidy up and improve target (-t) argument parsing:

- move the code back into cmd.c and merge with the existing functions where
  possible;
- accept "-tttyp0" as well as "-t/dev/ttyp0" for clients;
- when looking up session names, try an exact match first, and if that fails
  look for it as an fnmatch pattern and then as the start of a name - if more
  that one session matches an error is given; so if there is one session called
  "mysession", -tmysession, -tmysess, -tmysess* are equivalent but if there
  is also "mysession2", the last two are errors;
- similarly for windows, if the argument is not a valid index or exact window
  name match, try it against the window names as an fnmatch pattern and a
  prefix.
