GLib is already used in three part of awesome (awful.widget.textclock,
gears.timer and menubar.utils). Gio will soon be added.

This adds three new arguments to awesome.spawn() that tell it to return pipes
for stdin, stdout and stderr of the spawned process.

This adds luaA_getopt_integer, luaA_optinteger and luaA_checkinteger.
Lua 5.2 does not have support for this, but it would be available in Lua
5.3.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/320.
This table contains the drawable, wibox and titlebar that we are drawing on, but
also includes the screen and the DPI of that screen. This allows widgets to
depend on the DPI in their rendering.

With the second argument being 2, the traceback will not include the error
handling function, but instead end at the actual place of the error.

Having two modules named "base" is confusing and "wibox.layout" doesn't contain
much useful stuff. This is a first step for removing wibox.layout by moving a
function which should only ever be used internally in awesome.

This adds gears.timer.start(timeout, callback) that creates a timer object and
connects a callback to it, all in one go.
Additionally, this adds gears.timer.weak_start(timeout, callback). The weak
version still allows the callback function to be garbage collected and will then
stop the timer.
This was tested with the following code:
require("gears.timer").start(0.3, function()
print("ping")
if collectgarbage("step", 500) then
print("collection done")
error("err")
end
return true end)
require("gears.timer").weak_start(0.1, function()
io.stdout:write(".")
return true
end)
After a full collection cycle, both timers are stopped. The first one is stopped
because of the error() that it generated. The second one is stopped because the
callback function was garbage collected.

This factors out a function wait_until_success that runs some command until it
succeeds (with a timeout) and uses this function in the two places where this
was already done before.
Note that this removes the "kill -0" trick for early exit again and instead will
use the timeout in case awesome dies during startup.

When this script is not run under Travis, it will prepare a temporary config
file and a theme file that point to the files that were not yet installed.

The code does some dances with xrdb to ensure that the server finished starting
up. However, before this it already tries to access the server via dbus-launch.
Since nothing uses dbus in this part of the code, we can just move this down.

I'm working on something that adds :layout functions to widgets. This clashes
with the keyboardlayout widget's use of an entry with this name. This change
adds an underscore as a prefix to the private data members of the
keyboardlayout.

`xkb_state_key_get_one_sym` returns `Meta_L` for a (release) event of
`Alt_L` when Shift is pressed.
This patch changes it to use `xcb_key_symbols_get_keysym` in the same
way like normal key handling does it in `event_handle_key`. This was
changed in 372d12e, but apparently forgotten for the keygrabber.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/364.
This will skip calling `client_resize_do` in case of honored size hints.
This could be also done in `client_resize_do`, but it appears to be
meant to force the resize.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/383.
Given an outcome of e.g. 1.01 its more sane to use 1 than 2, especially
for `border_width`.
This uses the method from `wibox.layout.flex`.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/389.
