Usually users want a wallpaper on all their screens. With the current code, this
resulted in a loop of upload-wallpaper, {download-wallpaper, add-new-part,
upload-wallpaper}*.
Fix this by being more intelligent: Instead of setting the wallpaper
immediately, this now uses gears.timer.delayed_call() to set the wallpaper. All
following modifications which come in before the delayed call runs will still be
part of the current update. This should mean that during startup, there is just
a single upload of a wallpaper.
(The above is what happens if there is no wallpaper yet. If there is already
one, we use :create_similar() and thus should only upload the part of the
wallpaper that changed, but this doesn't really make a difference.)
As a side-effect, the new code no longer draws to the old wallpaper to modify
it, but always creates a copy of it. This means that:

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).
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/541.

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 is an enhancement to make non-ASCII symbol keys usable for
implementation and configuration of Awesome.
The enhancement was proposed and had been developed under the
initiative of Daniel Hahler. Thanks to his sharing of his results with our
community, we gradually deepened our understanding on the issue. This
commit is the fruit his enthusiasm spawned.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/538.
Before this, we grabbed the keys on the frame window. That meant we only got key
events for things that nothing else grabbed directly on the key window.
After this, we grab directly on the client window itself and so we "fight" with
everything else which wants to grab keys. I don't actually know how the winner
is decided... First come, first serve, the rest gets an error?

This adds it to the output of "awesome -h" and translates the version in the man
page to italian. Thanks, eri_trabiccolo for the translation!
