This module is half way between the tooltip and the raw wibox.
It supports the following features:
* Auto resize to its widget size
* Support parent objects and placement
Fix#1683
It does not provide much value. The version number is already known to
ldoc globally in the "description" variable.

The deprecation wrapper that we still have for this function didn't return
anything. However, awful.util.pread() used to return strings. This breaks
script.
Work around this by returning an empty string. That way code will still break,
but at least it should not error out.

Why:
* Two different (but related) concepts had the same name
* Users were confused for years on IRC
* The wibar name was already in use in some doc to avoid confusion
There was many unfixable race conditions that could only be
solved by better integrating the request:: system and
awful.rules. This has the side effect to make rules mandatory.
* This commit add a new module to avoid a (4 level) loop dependency
* It is now possible to call awful.spawn() with a table of properties
* awful.rules is used to execute the rules.
* Everything is public to allow alternative workflow modules such as
Tyrannical to use their own callback implementation.
