These files do not need to be executable and the commits which made
these executable apparently only did so accidentally (Commits
37684abe33 and bfc6065ad9).

I am no longer sure why I added this file. It doesn't really belong into
the awesome source code. It is better suited to be added to our web
page, I think.

I really try to avoid doing this, psychon too, but enough is
enough. We don't have a solution and I would rather add more
tests that work than keeping a test that keep "failing" just
to remind us it's there.
Cleanup and point to the GitHub page for the recent contributors.
Some older contributors don't have GitHub accounts, so are
invisible, so I left the old list intact.
This commit doesn't add any useful documentation, but adds
previously hidden documentation variables. It can be the basis
of a better layout documentation.
Fix#1246
We have many places where we are sending an XCB request and expect an
answer where the protocol guarantees that no error can occur and we are
sure to get an answer. However, for example if the X11 server crashes,
these places can still fail. This commit tries to handle failures at all
these places.
I went through the code and tried to add missing error checking (well,
NULL-pointer-checking) to all affected places.
In most cases these errors are just silently ignored. The exception is
in screen querying during startup. If, for example, querying RandR info
fails, we will fall back to Xinerama or zaphod mode. This is serious
enough that it warrants a warning. In most cases, we should exit shortly
afterwards anyway, because, as explained above, these requests should
only fail when our connection to the X11 server breaks.

The function that is documented as awful.wibox.stretch is deprecated,
because it was removed (that's not a deprecation, is it?!?). For the
replacement, we used "@see stretch". However, LDoc was randomly
resolving this reference to awful.wibar.stretch (good) or
awful.wibox.stretch (bad; the see points to the element where it
appears).
Fix this by spelling out the "full name" of the function in the @see.

The only other swap function is awful.tag.swap and that one is
deprecated. Thus, it should not be linked to.

People who use a plain "make install" to install awesome will likely
also use the same approach to update their installation. However, this
does not actually work, because in awesome 3.5 there are beautiful.lua
and naughty.lua. These modules have since been split up into multiple
files and we now have beauitful/init.lua and naughty/init.lua instead.
The result is that the newer awesome will use some code from an older
version of awesome.
This commit has a work-around for this: We add "empty" beautiful.lua and
naughty.lua files whose only purpose is to load the real file. These
"empty" files will then overwrite files from an older installation and
everything works.
Sadly, this bad hack will have to be kept around forever and in the
future we will only have more instances of it. I would like to just say
people to fix their system, but apparently this should be worked around
instead.

Previously, the API to set the data that should be displayed was
:set_data(t) where t is a table. This table has the labels to use as its
keys and the numbers as its values. With this API, it was not possible
to influence the order in which the "pie pieces" were drawn.
This commit adds and uses a new API called :set_data_list(t). Here, t is
a table with integer keys and tables as values, thus one can iterate
over this with ipairs() and the order is well-defined. The tables used
as values contain the label as their first entry and the number as their
second entry.

It was currently done all at once. Therefore, the error message was:
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:415 (message):
A required package was not found
With no further information besides the full dependency list.
With this change, it will print the missing package.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/1253.
