This allow to spawn something, then apply some properties or rules when
the client show up ("manage").
This commit add:
* "startup_id" property for all clients object (immutable, can be nil)
* Second return value to awful.util.spawn() with the startup_id
* Update the documentation
Example:
local wait_for_it = {}
local pid,snid = awful.util.spawn("urxvtc")
wait_for_it[snid] = {ontop=true,sticky=false,
tag = awful.tag.gettags(mouse.screen)[1] }
client.connect_signal("manage", function (c, startup)
if c.startup_id and wait_for_it[c.startup_id] then
for k,v in pairs(wait_for_it[c.startup_id]) do
c[k] = v
end
if wait_for_it[c.startup_id].tag then
c:tags({wait_for_it[c.startup_id].tag})
end
end
end)

This reverts commit a54636751b.
We now have the new xproperty API which does the same thing in a much nicer way.
Thanks to Elv13 for the idea!

This commits adds awesome.register_xproperty(). This allows lua code to register
arbitrary X11 properties with awesome which will then watch these properties.
Whenever such a property is changed on a client or drawin, we will emit the
xproperty::name signal.
This also adds window:get_xproperty(name) and window:set_xproperty(name, value)
which allows to mess with properties.

A drawin's and a client's bounding and clip shape can now be queried and is
returned as a cairo surface. Also, a client window's shape (e.g. xeyes setting
its own shape) can be queried via c.shape_client_bounding and
c.shape_client_clip. All of these properties now emit signals when changed.
(This also silently fixes a bug in luaA_drawin_set_shape_bounding() which forgot
to include the drawin's border in its size calculation)

With this change, awesome.spawn() can be called with a table as its command line
argument. This gets rid of lots of problems with escaping the arguments. For
example, the following call is now possible:
awesome.spawn({ "bash", "-c", "echo \"foo\"" })
Thanks to Ignas Anikevičius for inspiring me to this.

Commit 03e0ee53d2 removed window shapes, because at the time I was too
lazy to port them from the old image system to oocairo.
This commit re-adds them, but for now only as a way to set the shape.

A drawable is something that you can draw to, just like a drawin. However, a
drawable isn't necessarily its own windows. This will later on be used to
implement titlebars where the titlebars are drawables.

This allows lua code to set a wallpaper directly instead of having to spawn some
external tools which possibly aren't installed.

Returning true from the callback just to signal keygrabber to continue grabbing
felt redundant (and silly :|).
This will break old code that relied on returning false to stop grabbing,
instead of calling keygrabber.stop.
And fix keygrabber docs.

This uses imlib2 for loading the image and thus supports more image formats than
just PNG.

To demonstrate keygrabber API usage, I added a small function to the
docs that can be bound to a key and used to resize clients using
keyboard.

With this patch, we track the number of objects that are alive for any class.
This information can be accessed via class.instances()
For example:
print("wiboxes", wibox.instances())
print("widgets", widget.instances())

If this property is true, setting "client.focus" to this client might have some
effect. If it is false, setting "client.focus" will be ignored completely.
