--- Activate (focus) a client.
--
-- This method is the correct way to focus a client. While
-- `client.focus = my_client` works and is commonly used in older code, it has
-- some drawbacks. The most obvious one is that it bypasses the activate
-- filters. It also doesn't handle minimized clients well and requires a lot
-- of boilerplate code to make work properly.
--
-- The valid `args.actions` are:
--
-- * **mouse_move**: Move the client when the mouse cursor moves until the
--  mouse buttons are release.
-- * **mouse_resize**: Resize the client when the mouse cursor moves until the
--  mouse buttons are release.
-- * **mouse_center**: Move the mouse cursor to the center of the client if it
--  isn't already within its geometry,
-- * **toggle_minimization**: If the client is already active, minimize it.
