Subject: [PATCH] Fix focus handling with multiple awesome instances

When there are multiple X11 screens (i.e. :0.0 and :0.1) for zaphod mode
style X setups, this triggers a refresh of focus when the instance
running on a particular root receives the mouse

Fixes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/599.
