It is an internal API and is used by `gears.shape`, `gears.pattern`
and `gears.composition` only.
This commit also add `:rotate_at` and `:copy` methods.
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 code is imported from Elv13 config and make it very easy
to create shaped objects.
If accepted upstream, other shapes, such as arrow and powerline
will also be added. This commit introsuce the 2 most common
shapes, rounded rectangle and rounded bar.
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.

gears.surface now returns a fallback image surface that is good enough for what
this code tries to do here.

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

Before this, calling one of the loading functions with a nil argument always
made it return the default 0x0 surface. With this change, the passed-in default
value is now properly applied.

Instead of throwing a Lua error, the code now just prints an error message to
stderr on invalid markup. For callers which want to handle this case specially,
we add :set_markup_silently() which returns error messages.

Oh hey, Pango exports an API that allows to query for named colors based on the
famous rgb.txt! Let's use that!

This adds support to gears.color.parse_color to parse things like "#fff" (one
character per color component, without alpha) and "#ffff0000ffff0000" (four
characters per component, with alpha).
This makes sense on its own, but should also help with
https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/585.

*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.
The code here doesn't always work, so it's best to just don't mess with
awesome.version, but return it directly.

Since some commits, surface.load_uncached() handles errors itself and thus we
don't have to print an error message here any more.

Previously, a Lua error was thrown when loading a file failed. Most callers are
not prepared for this and the result is less than optimal.
This commit makes the functions print the errors and return nil instead. For
callers that want to handle errors themselves, "_silent" variants of the
functions are introduced which just return errors to the caller.
