When a window is unmapped, awesome stops tracking it, possibly
leaving stale grabs behind. These grabs can be activated if the
window is mapped again without awesome’s knowledge. This results
in a locked pointer until the grab window is destroyed.
Fix by releasing passive grabs before untracking a client window.
The goal is to catch cases where the return value exists, but is
forgotten. There was a large enough number of them to turn this
into a real check. Initially, I just wanted to implement it to fix
the problems, then delete the code. But since this is so common, I
think it is worth the annoyance.
* Rendering problems
* Incomplete type information
* Obsolete type information
* Missing type information
* Missing return value
* Incomplete return value type
It might be a good idea to deprecate them and move them to the tag
class. However, these APIs are not exactly well designed, so
moving them wont solve that. Some day the dynamic client layout will
hopefully be merged and send these functions to the heap of smelly
bad ideas trash.
The last time this page had a refresh was in parallel with another
massive whole-doc project. Thus, this page still had older
conventions which everything else had already removed.
Apparently transparent client borders only work when the border color is
set to `#00000000` specifically.

GCC 10 builds with -fno-common by default, which causes linker errors when
variables are declared in header files and included in multiple places.

This commit mostly rewrite the client documentation and pay the
technical debt accumulated over the years. Most of the client
documentation was still one-liners from the luadoc era. It now
has all the new tags, type. It also has actual description of
what the properties do beyond the name.
This also pulls in part of the permission framework to ensure
backward compatibility is kept.
`awful.autofocus` was always weird. It is a module part of `awful`,
but it was never part of `awful` `init.lua`. Rather, `rc.lua` was
the sole place it was used. It behave exactly like a request, but
predate them by years. As I cleanup the request:: API before the
permissions API gets formalized, this has to be fixed now.
It isn't deprecated in this commit because it makes too many tests
fail. Another pull request will solve that by adding the "API level"
concept to AwesomeWM so I can change the behavior without breaking
existing configs. With that, the behavior of `autofocus` will be
enabled by default with the permissions to disable it.
