The new client is hopefully faster. Why, you ask?
Instead of spawning a new Lua process each time a test asks for a new window,
there is a "daemon process" which gets commands to open new windows from its
standard input. That way, Lua doesn't have to load LGI all the time and lots of
pointless work is skipped. The daemon process exits when its stdin is closed and
thus should automatically exit when awesome exits.

This restore a feature that was available in Awesome 2.1-3.2.
The reason margin is implemented rather than use a container is to
be able to make the background smaller than the bar.
The current progressbar code dates from a time when Awesome had
a very limited drawing API. This commit first re-write the
algorithm to remove the workaround used to draw the border using
full rectangles only. It then add support for outer and inner
shapes with their respective border settings.
This commit also add clip support. This is enabled by default, but
could be disabled to have the bar taller than the background.
This meta-lua script takes the "raw" awesomerc.lua and turn it
into the final file and generate a documentation page from its
parsed content. It support
* Turn {{{ into markdown categories
* Turn top level comments into documentation
* Add custom documentation sections
* Parse the code to add links for each API calls
This helps generate a good entry point for new users wanting to
understand the content of rc.lua without searching the API by
hand.
Over time, this will also become the basis of the documentation.
If `rc.lua` is separated into several files, this will be easy to fix
this script. It could even do the separation itself from a monolitic
file using the already implemented {{{ parser.
run.sh waits for awesome's startup to be done by having awesome execute "return
1" via its dbus interface. However, by default dbus has a 25 second timeout
before it fails a dbus-send invocation. This defeats the purpose of this
exercise.
So instead of using awesome-client, this commit makes the code use dbus-send
directly and specifies a relative low reply timeout (which should still be
plenty so that this doesn't erroneously fail).

The timeout utility guarantees an exit code of 124 when the process died due to
timeout. Since awesome only ever exits with 0 or 1, we can use this to reliably
detect timeouts and print a matching message.
