Previously, it would create a new object. The leaves the old
`replaces_id` logic mostly intact for now to keep the full backward
compatibility. I don't think anybody would have noticed the changed, by
time and time again we had proof that some silent users have some
amazing and advanced code hidden somewhere. It could be cleaned later
when breaking compatibility isn't an issue.
The current API is non-compliant with the 1.0 spec and cannot represent
the v1.2 spec at all. The pair of name and callback fails to represent
the explicit ordering and cannot support the icons cleanly.
Plus to support the keyboard navigation use case, the notification
action need to be able to get some sort of focus state. Having an
object makes this easy.
When mangling notifications via naughty.config.notify_callback it is
advised (1) to return nil to reject a notification. The underlaying dbus
library tries to access a field of that notification table and fails.

When an icon is sent over dbus, we turn this into a cairo ImageSurface.
This is done by turning the actual icon data into a string and using
cairo.ImageSurface.create_for_data() to create a surface for this data.
However, this function only creates an ImageSurface that refers to this
data. It does not copy the data. Thus, when the Lua GC later frees the
string, we have a cairo surface that refers to already-freed data.
Fix this by duplicating the cairo surface, which makes cairo create a
copy of the data. Then, we finish the original surface. While doing
this, the string is kept alive in a local variable.

* Move table functions out of awful.util into new gears.table
* travis: Use v9999 prefix for full requests
Make sure no newly deprecated functions are used
* Move all `awful.util.table.*` calls to `gears.table.*` calls
Move table test functions from awful/util_spec to new gears/table_spec
Change awful.util.subsets call to gears.math.subsets in awful/key.lua
It does not provide much value. The version number is already known to
ldoc globally in the "description" variable.

According to the Desktop Notification specification document [1] the
clients supply actions available along with a notification in a form of
a list of pairs where first element is an identifier of an action and
the second is a localized message that will be displayed to the user.
Up to now the naughty code directly used the action identifier text as a
part of the notification layout exposed to the user. This commit makes
use of a localized action description for that purpose.

The code here doesn't always work, so it's best to just don't mess with
awesome.version, but return it directly.
