Returns a Query List Comprehension (QLC) query handle.
The `m:qlc` module provides a query language, very similar to list
comprehensions, which allows iterator style traversal of data
structures. Calling `table/1,2` is the means to make the i3 tree
`Tree` usable to QLC.
The `Algo` argument can be either `dfs` or `bfs` which stand for
depth-first and breadth-first traversal respectively. Usually,
depth-first traversal is preferred so it's the default when calling
`table/1`.
_Examples:_
An example query for the focused node:
```erlang
0> {ok, Pid} = i3_client:start_link([]),
1> {ok, Tree} = i3_client:get_tree(Pid),
2> QH = qlc:q([Node || #{~"focused" := true} = Node <- i3_client_trees:table(Tree)]).
3> [#{~"focused" := true}] = qlc:eval(QH)
```
