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

*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.
Having many arguments can easily get confusing and hard to understand. This
commit uses a table instead so that we have names that identify what each
callback does.

This adds functions for getting directories according to the XDG base dir
specification. This might be useful in general.
This also adds a function for getting the cache dir, because I like an explicit
function call more than something which "switches" based on a string argument.
Better error messages if you mis-type something. :-)
Finally, this adds a function for getting the directory containing the rc.lua
file. Sadly, awful.util.getdir("config") did not actually do that. See #218.

This is a weak table whose entries might be removed by the garbage collector.
I'm not sure if this will every cause problems, but it's better to be prepared
for tables having "nil holes" (which would mean ipairs ignores some entries).

Thanks to the way that X11 works, geometries consider the size of the client
without the border width, but the position of the top-left corner of the border.
This commit adds a new function get_area() which returns the area that is
actually covered by a client. Then, all the code is changed to use this new
function (even the part of the code which did get this border thing correct).

None of this code wants to resize clients. Thus, it makes sense to only set the
position of a client and ignore its size.
Also, this sneaks in a fix for no_offscreen which is documented to return the
client's new position, but didn't actually do so.

* This commit add a new module to avoid a (4 level) loop dependency
* It is now possible to call awful.spawn() with a table of properties
* awful.rules is used to execute the rules.
* Everything is public to allow alternative workflow modules such as
Tyrannical to use their own callback implementation.
I have no idea why this needs collectgarbage() to be called twice.
On the other hand, I can explain the change in tooltip.lua. Lua 5.2 introduced
"ephermeron tables". This means that in the following sitation, lua 5.2 can
collect the entry from the table, while 5.1 keeps the entry alive, because the
table has a strong reference to the value and that in turn has a strong
reference to the key:
t = setmetatable({}, { __mode = "k"})
do
local k = {}
t[k] = function() print(k) end
end
collectgarbage("collect")
print(next(t, nil))
To handle this incompatibility, this commit just removes the whole indirection
through the module-level variable "data".

Again, instead of directly connecting to various signals for updating a

do the updates.

Similar to what the previous commit does for layoutboxes, this changes the code

Instead of connecting to the needed tag-update-signal again for every layoutbox,
this now just creates a single connection and updates all layoutboxes from here.
A new weak table is used to find the layoutboxes from these callbacks.
Additionally, layoutboxes are now per-screen unique. So even if you try to
create three layoutboxes for screen 1, the code will now always return the same
instance.
This kind-of fixes the leak test for layoutboxes. The problem is that the
default config also creates a layoutbox and adds it to a wibox. Since this is
now the same layoutbox, the test still fails. Just removing the layoutbox-part
from the default config makes this problem go away.

This fixes the textclock-specific part of the test that the previous commit
added.
To fix this, gears.timer.weak_start_new() is used. This function creates a timer
that is automatically stopped when its callback function is garbage collected.
The callback function is saved as a member of the texbox widget that is the
"widget behind the textclock". Thus, the timer can only be stopped after the
widget is garbage-collected, but the timer does not keep the widget alive.

When a client is not visible, this would adjust its stacking order
still.
This also addresses https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/472,
because it raises unminimized clients after they got focused.
This is used by `tooltip.place` then to tie the tooltip to the screen of
the mouse. Without this, a tooltip from the tasklist might get moved to
the screen above the tasklist, if it gets considered to be on that
screen given its coordinates.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/437.
Extend the range of the 'group_names' patterns which is currently
restricted to typical ones like
pc+us+ru:2+de:3+ba:4+inet
to more general ones such as
macintosh_vndr/apple(alukbd)+macintosh_vndr/jp(usmac)+macintosh_vndr/jp(mac):2
so that the keyboardlayout widget can handles all possible patterns
returned by awesome.xkb_get_layout_group().
The default config has this:
awful.key({ modkey, }, "o", awful.client.movetoscreen ),
This moves the client to the next screen and focuses that screen.
But it does not ensure that the client is raised above any existing
windows, e.g. when moving a floating client.
This patch emits the `request::activate` signal if the client is
currently focused, but only if the screen property actually has changed.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/98.
This factors out `matches` and uses it in `matches_list` (renamed
from `does_match`) to short-circuit the successful case - where not all
rules have to get checked.

This new function spawns a program, similarly to awful.spawn, but captures its
output. On each line of output on stdout / stderr, a Lua function is called with
this line. There are different callbacks for stdout and stderr. When both stdout
and stderr are closed, another callback function is called. The intention for
this last callback is "the program is done", because most programs should only
close their output when they exit.

This allows the "label" callback to adjust the textbox itself.

Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/313.
The tooltip might be partly outside of the screen, and especially the
workarea, e.g. for tooltips on the tasklist.
Calling `awful.placement.no_offscreen` makes sure that it is fully
inside, and will even restrict it to the workarea, not only to the screen.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/409.
