There's no point in having multiple instances of this, because there are no
per-instance settings and the systray can only be visible in a single place at a
time anyway.

* Better widget names when using the declarative syntax
* Add ratio.get_ratio to avoid using the private API
* Also support `set_widget` when swapping widgets
This commit makes these methods invoke the method on a widget in a protected
context. Thanks to this, e.g. the wibox and other widgets are protected from
errors in a child widget.
Additionally, fit_widget() now assumes 0 if a widget's :fit() method didn't
provide a number.

I just spent too much time tracking down a bug that happened while drawing a
widget. This is the reason why we should apply sanity checks while widgets are
constructed, so that we get a useful backtrace.

This makes the code use the existing functions for setting widgets. That way,
all the sanity checks that the existing functions have are applied for this code
as well.
I just spent half an hour tracking down a bug where a boolean ended up as a
"widget" in a fixed layout. The symptom was that while drawing the widget, an
error happened. Via this change, the error would instead be flagged while
constructing the widget.

This commit documents that a textbox already accepts a screen object where a
screen index is expected. Also, this changes the widget API in that a widget's
context.screen is now a screen object instead of a screen index.

This new syntax is inspired by the Awesome widget 3.2-3.4 API. It
allow cleaner widgets declaration. The produced code is usually much
shorted and easier to read than wibox.widget imperative syntax.
There is already a hack into `awful.widget.common`. This system aim
to make the hack obselete while preserving the useful part.
I think this is also necessary to properly support SVG (with DPI
and resize).
Finally, Qt handle this using the QBrush concept, where you can have
programmatic patterns. Cairo doesn't have this concept, so there is no
"clean" way to have programmatic brushes.
Instead of throwing a Lua error, the code now just prints an error message to
stderr on invalid markup. For callers which want to handle this case specially,
we add :set_markup_silently() which returns error messages.

Without this fix `wibox.widget.textbox` ignores current theme font
setting and resets it to the initial one.
It becomes handy when the initial theme is tweaked during runtime, ie.
in `rc.lua`. Other AwesomeWM components like `awful` (taglist,
tasklist, menu) are aware and do respect the actual theme settings.

This adds new functions to all widgets that allow to force a specific
width/height. These values override the result from :fit().

When emitting layout_changed, the widget is relayouted. If this doesn't actually
change anything, nothing will be redrawn. Thus, this also emits redraw_needed to
force redraws.
This fixes a race condition with some weird tray icons. A new tray icon is
created and the systray is updated. Then this new icon is destroyed immediately
again and at the same time another icon is created. Then, the systray isn't
updated since the number of icons (=the layout) did not actually change.
However, it needs to be updated and so we ended up with broken/missing icons.

This adds :get_preferred_size() and :get_preferred_size_at_dpi() which return
the size (=width, height) that the textbox would need if unlimited space is
available.
This also adds :get_height_for_width() and :get_height_for_width_at_dpi() which
return the height that the textbox would need if the given width is available.

If someone modifies a cairo surface and then sets the resulting object as the
image of an imagebox, the imagebox needs to redraw. Thus, since surfaces are
modifiable, we cannot assume that nothing changed when the same image is set
multiple times on an imagebox.
However, the dimensions of a surface cannot be changed and thus this does not
need to emit widget::layout_changed.

This makes the textbox' :draw() and :fit() callbacks use the DPI that is
specified in the given drawing context. With this, the textbox now scales
correctly if different screens have different DPI values.

This has some positive results on the "benchmark test". Each single number is
the best one out of three runs.
Before:
create wibox: 0.0826502 sec/iter ( 13 iters, 1.157 sec for benchmark)
update textclock: 0.0186952 sec/iter ( 57 iters, 2.473 sec for benchmark)
relayout textclock: 0.0158112 sec/iter ( 64 iters, 1.028 sec for benchmark)
redraw textclock: 0.0015197 sec/iter (662 iters, 1.861 sec for benchmark)
After:
create wibox: 0.0825672 sec/iter ( 13 iters, 1.154 sec for benchmark)
update textclock: 0.00378412 sec/iter (277 iters, 4.216 sec for benchmark)
relayout textclock: 0.00259056 sec/iter (420 iters, 1.09 sec for benchmark)
redraw textclock: 0.00105128 sec/iter (958 iters, 1.79 sec for benchmark)
We see no significant change in the creation of wiboxes (99.9% compared to
before). Update (20% of the previous run time), relayout (16%) and redraw (69%)
are all sped up by this change.

Before this, dependencies between widgets where implicitly discovered by
recursive calls to base.fit_widget() and base.layout_widget(). However, it is
too easy to get this wrong (just call one of these functions from outside of a
widget's :fit() / :layout() function) and the resulting mess would be hard to
debug.
Thus, this commit changes the API so that callers have to identify themselves
and we can explicitly record the dependency between the widgets involved.
This also fixes a bug where no dependencies were tracked for widgets after
:set_visible(false). Whoops...
Sorry for breaking the API for adding this.

These caches, well, cache the result of the :layout and :fit callbacks on
widgets.
Clearing caches is done by recording dependencies between a widget. When a call
to base.fit_widget() or base.layout_widget() recursively causes another call to
such a function, this means that the earlier widget depends on the later widget.
This dependency is recorded and when the later widget emits
widget::layout_changed, the caches of all the widgets involved are cleared.

This way "that other widget" doesn't prevent the current widget from being
garbage collected.
Please note that this in all of these cases the widget under consideration does
have a strong reference to the callback function. This means that the callback
cannot be garbage collected until "this widget" itself is collected. Thanks to
this, this change is safe.

This made it easier to figure out where a file causing an error was
coming from, but I could imagine that this could become too noisy, and
that there is/should probably be a more streamlined way to enable more
verbose logging / error output.
When an imagebox was drawn with width or height zero, it tried to calculate the
needed scale factor for making the image fit. Sadly, this would be a division by
zero aka infinite in this case.
Fix this by just not drawing anything if there is no space available.

Given an imagebox i with i.resize_forbidden = false and a valid image set, the
call t:fit(0, 0) would return two times "not a number".
This is because the code first does some calculations to get the input image
into the available space and then tried to do some calculations needed for
scaling images up.
The first calculation already gave us h == 0 == w, the second calculation would
then calculate 0/0. This results in NaNs.
This was only noticed because NaN is not a valid table index in lua.
Fix this by returning 0,0 if we have an image of width or height 0 after the
first calculation. Since 0x0 images are valid in cairo, this also fixes the same
bug with such images.

This commit adds and uses wibox.layout.base.fit_widget(). This function is a
wrapper for widget:fit() that caches the result and thus speeds things up.
This is necessary because some layouts call :fit() from their :fit() and :draw()
functions. Nesting such layouts means that at the widget at the tail of the
stack gets its :fit() function called quite often. If this function is not
blazingly fast, this results in noticeable slowness.

This has to be removed because it breaks the fallback to the default config if
the first config already managed to create a systray widget. This doesn't mean
that it is suddenly possible to have the systray visible in more than one place,
it just means that awesome will no longer complain about this.

The systray widget's fit() function worked in the (rotated) user coordinate
space while the draw() function used device coordinates (unrotated). This meant
that width and height were swapped up in the calculations and the systray ended
up being way too small.
Fix this by making the draw() function use user coordinates, too. This means
that it needs some new magic to detect a rotated coordinate space. This, in
turn, means that the systray is now automatically rotated when you put it into a
rotate layout.
This might cause some minor breakage because people no longer need to call
:set_horizontal() on the widgets.
Thanks a lot to Alexander Gehrke for his help!

In 3.4, an imagebox' image is set via "box.image = foo". Since widgets are just
