In #2112 the way of loading category icons was changed to use
utils.lookup_icon. However this function does not look in the
categories paths where the categories icons are located, and
so the category icons are no longer being displayed.
This change makes errors messages show up in the replies, too.
Before (notice how the third command does not generate output):
$ awesome-client 'return 42' ; awesome-client 'sdfsdf' ; awesome-client 'error("foo")'
double 42
string "[string "sdfsdf"]:1: syntax error near <eof>"
After:
$ awesome-client 'return 42' ; awesome-client 'sdfsdf' ; awesome-client 'error("foo")'
double 42
string "[string "sdfsdf"]:1: syntax error near <eof>"
string "Error during execution: [string "error("foo")"]:1: foo"

For "stuff around screen's 'removed' signal", it might make sense to
temporarily set a tags screen to nil. The idea is that it will only
later be assigned to a new screen, not immediately.
However, currently a tag with screen nil causes quite some problems in
the set_screen() function. This commit works around this with a generous
amount of "wrap this in if".

Before this commit, there was a conflict between the spawn and
awful.rules rules.
Also, modules such as Tryannical monkey-patched this function to
add their own rules to the mix. This commit introduce a proper
API to add handlers.
The order is crutial for this to work, so a dependency system is
also added.
Fix#1482
* Add support for resizing notification icon with respect to aspect
Previously, if an icon was not exactly square, an icon size set in configuration
would cause the notification to pad the icon with empty space so dimensions are
equal.
Now behaviour is different: the bigger dimension of the icon is scaled to fit
the icon_size value, while smaller is scaled same amount to preserve aspect.
Also, ImageSurface is now not created as fixed size square, but it's dimensions
are computed in similar way.
* Round the computed dimensions of ImageSurface
Even one pixel off is still off.
This now does directly what previously awesome.load_image() did. Also,
this commit removes the only caller of awesome.load_image(), so that
function could (in theory) be removed now.

The code here has things like "if cache.bgb" which suggests that "bgb"
(great name, by the way) is supposed to be optional. However,
31b8623ff6 made this thing definitely not optional by making it
*the* widget that is displayed. That feels wrong.
Also, after the above commit, the ".primary" entry is no longer used,
which is at least surprising for something which is called "primary".
None of this is explicitly documented (I didn't find anything when
looking for "primary" in common.lua nor tasklist.lua; I know that there
are examples for using this, but still that doesn't say how this is
supposed to work), so I'm not quite sure how this was intended to work.
Instead, I am just proposing this commit as a better fix with the above
rational and see what feedback I get...

This commit allow user defined delegates to be used as list elements.
This put an end to the endless attempt to cram more features into this
code.
A widget template (non-instantiated) is passed to the arguments and
is created by the common code. It also supports "roles" where some
user defined widgets can replace the old textbox or imagebox.
The old function didn't scale at all. As no replacements are going
to be merged anytime soon, start to make it meta-extensible.
This is the first step to be able to let the widget be extended
directly from rc.lua without adding yet more silly parameters.
It never scaled and has reached the point of no return a very long
time ago.
My first ever contribution to Awesome was to attempt to fix this,
but the solution was a bad hack. The radical module later solved
this by delegating the style, layout, theme, item layout and item
style to various "visitor" objects. While this is superior to this
commit, it was also a very large and complicated codebase. After
5 years, it is now obvious it will never be merged "whole".
