This module is partly broken since 2009 (the way to use it that is mentioned in
the docs doesn't actually work) because the mousefinder object doesn't have a
find()-method (the line doing "self.find = find" should do "self.finder =
finder.find"). Since no one really noticed, this module is apparently not used
much.
When someone wants to still use this, they are free to copy this to their own
config. It's not much code, but it's enough code that I am annoyed that we ship
something broken to users. Everyone who copies it to their own config will make
sure it works the way they want.

Any awful.titlebar.widget.button widget (e.g. floatingbutton or closebutton)
decides on the currently visible symbol based on several factors. One of them is
"is the client currently focused?" and thus the button has to be updated when
the client is focused/unfocused.
The way the code did this was to use client.connect_signal("focus", f) and
client.connect_signal("unfocus", f). However, these signals are never
disconnected and kept alive forever. The callback function had a strong
reference to the client (as an upvalue) and thus this also prevented the client
from being garbage collected.
Fix this by using c:connect_signal("focus/unfocis", f) instead. These kind of
signals are only kept alive by the client object and don't prevent it from being
garbage collected.
This fixes the new test that the previous commit added.

Go around a limitation of the lua language spec. The return value
of this method guaranteed `ipairs()` correctness.
Please note that both the official Lua and Luajit implementation
provide a sparse table compatible `ipairs()` and __len implementation
by default.
It is necessary to have it beforehand when creating layout objects
for unselected layouts.
In the current layout system, there is no layout object, but to allow
tabs and dynamic tagging features like ion3, layouts cannot be stateless.
Before, it was the caller job to make sure the client wasn't floating.
This limitation is unecessary. awful.client.idx now return nil instead
of an error. awful.rules setting the master width factor are now
foolproof.
This allow the most basic kind of stateful layouts to be created.
It is now possible to have layout instances instead of global
stateless layout arrange functions.
This allow layout "arrange" to be called less often and react on
the cause of the change itself rather than it's consequences
(usually, the "focus" signal).
Previously, the layout were re-arranged everytime the focus changed.
Now, with "raised" and "lowered", it require less "arrange".
"swapped" allow smarted layouts. Currently, swapped cause a full
re-arrange. It re-read the "index" list from scratch and create
a "new" layout. With "swapped", incremental layout changes are
possible.

A nil-value is no longer simply passed through, so this has to do some "special
things" to work properly.

*WARNING* This introduce a minor API break as awful.tag.setscreen
arguments are now swapped for consistency
This allow to introduce logic for each properties and improve
awful.tag.add and execute logic when setting properties.
