Tag names really are strings. Numbers just work accidentally since the C code
uses luaL_checklstring() to access the tag name and this function silently
converts numbers to strings.
This also has a nice documentation effect, making it easier for people to figure
out that they can change the name of a tag. Plus, with this the changes done by
previous commits make more sense (specifying an awful.rules-rule that identifies
a tag by name).

The new stateful layout system try to avoid coupling and therefor
doesn't use these methods. It is not planned to deprecate the
stateless layout API, so these functions are just kept as-is with
the old naming convention.
ldoc doesn't allow to specify fields from class "A" into class "B",
so the only solution is to merge the 2.
Also, one of the most common complain on IRC since Awesome 3.0 is
that the client API doc is confusing since it is in 2 different files.
Also restore the `awful.client` doc link, point to `client`
This will avoid broken links.
Previously, the `Signals` section was shown before the `Functions`.
This was confusing and different from other framework documentation.
It partially work. Not all ldoc output display the functions at the
top, but some does. Previously, none did.
This commit also add 3 new sections:
* property: For object properties, replacing the "fields" table
from the current documentations.
* deprecated: For deprecated methods
* beautiful: For widgets theme options
The code that claims to do what XRRUpdateConfiguration() would do was actually
wrong. That function does not send any requests to the X11 server, but it just
updates the local, in-memory state.
This commit makes us do the same: We update the size of the root window if it
changed. The code is directly inspired from the code in libXrandr.

This commit copies part of what XRRUpdateConfiguration() would do. When the root
window is resized, we update the information that the X11 server sent to us when
we connected to it to contain the new size of the root window.
This is 50% ugly, but having our own copy of the root window size would be 51%
ugly, so it's better to write to the XCB-owned structure.
Right now this is all dead code anyway, because we restart anyway, but since the
goal is to get rid of that restart, this is a step in the right direction (e.g.
root.size() will automatically return the new size).

This function needs the event numbers for events from some extensions. These are
assigned dynamically by the server. Right now, this is done by having a bunch of
static variables that are initialized when needed.
Refactor this to have a function event_init() instead that sets variable in
globalconf (where all of our state should be saved). Also, a preprocessor macro
is introduced to handle event dispatch which also looks a bit nicer.
