To quote from ICCCM (§4.1.2): "The window manager will not change properties
written by the client."
We tried to do this anyway to update WM_HINTS so that the current urgency state
is reflected. Apparently, Chrome does a similar read-modify-set cycle and the
resulting race condition meant that the "accepts input" hint on Chromium's
window was permanently disabled.
This helps with https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/670, but I still
think that Chrome shouldn't try to implement "please don't focus me when I do
the following" by temporarily claiming "please don't ever focus me".

Commit ff799a0f5d is incomplete. It changed the window on which we grab
keys, but only in some places. When the keyboard layout changes, we have to
re-grab these keys, but the code does so on the wrong window.
This patch fixes that oversight.

Before this, we grabbed the keys on the frame window. That meant we only got key
events for things that nothing else grabbed directly on the key window.
After this, we grab directly on the client window itself and so we "fight" with
everything else which wants to grab keys. I don't actually know how the winner
is decided... First come, first serve, the rest gets an error?

The bit that indicates that the base size is set is

Whenever client.focus == nil, we set the input focus to the root window to
express "nothing has the input focus". However, thanks to the way X11 input
works, this means that whatever is under the mouse cursor gets keyboard input
events. This can easily be reproduced with urxvt and some small addition to the
config to unfocus things.
This commit changes things. Instead of focusing the root window, we create a
special "no focus" window that gets focused if we want nothing to have the
focus.

When minimizing a client, we temporarily ignore events for the client window (so
that we don't get the UnmapNotify event that we are causing for the unmap) and
for the root window (I don't actually know why, no "harmful" events should be
caused...).
However, we weren't ignoring events on the frame window itself. This commit
fixes that oversight.
The problem here is that the pointer could be inside the window that is being
minimized. When we then unmap said window, the pointer will now be inside of the
frame window and the X11 server will thus generate an EnterNotify. When we
handle this event later on, we emit mouse::enter on the client and e.g. the
default config then focuses this client, which undoes the minimization.
This fixes a regression introduced in commit 3aeac3870c and fixes#92.

Because ICCCM pretty much mandates that minimized (aka "iconic") clients are
unmapped. In detail: To go back to normal state, the client should map its
window and for this to work, the window needs to be unmapped.

Previously we would get a short black flicker when a client closes. This
happened because first the client's window would get hidden and only a short
moment later would awesome react to this and close its own window. In the mean
time, the X server filled the frame window with its background-pixel which was
black.
Just removing the background-pixel means we get the default value which is None.
This means that the content will be left untouched and the client's window will
be visible for a moment longer.

Fun fact: ICCCM specifies that icon_pixmap must have depth 1. Xterm uses a
pixmap with depth 24. Yay... As such, I don't have any test for the depth == 1
case and will just assume that it does the right thing. If it doesn't, I bet no
one will notice anyway.

Conflicts:
property.c
This fixes the following code:
local d = drawin({})
d.visible = true
The drawin now has a cairo surface assigned
d.visible = false
d.width = 1234
d.visible = true
The width change while the drawin was not visible would not get propagated to
the drawable because of the code that this patch removes. The expectation was
that drawin_map() would update the drawable later.
However, because the drawin was already visible, its drawable also already has
a surface assigned. Thus, drawin_map() wouldn't update the drawable either.
Fix this by just removing this optimizations.

The code in drawin_moveresize() tries to be clever and only updates the drawing
state of the drawable when it is resized, not when it is moved around. This used
to be necessary because once upon a time, drawin_update_drawing() threw away all
of the drawing state and thus forcing a repaint. These days it just calls
drawable_set_geometry() as well and that function special-cases moves.
So this old code in drawin_moveresize() is no longer necessary and actually
caused problems.
These problems occurred because drawin_update_drawing() is being clever and
doesn't do anything for .visible = false drawins, because their drawing state
will be updated once they become visible. However, not skipping
drawable_set_geometry() means that this broke, because drawin_map() thought that
the drawing state was up to date while in reality it wasn't.

The X11 server tells us about things that need to be redrawn via expose events.
When we get such an expose event before lua drew the drawable, we just fill the
exposed area with old data (which is black for newly-created drawables).
Fix this by tracking if we have any usable data in a drawable's double buffering
pixmap. This flag is unset whenever we throw away the old content (e.g. due to a
resize) and is set when lua gave us some new content to display.

Previously, ownership of the pixmaps that we are using for double buffering was
a little weird. The pixmap belonged to the drawin/titlebar, but the
corresponding cairo surface was owned by the drawable. Clean this up by moving
the pixmap to the drawable.
This cleans up lots of ugly code and also fixes a crash: When a drawable was
garbage collected before its drawin, drawin_wipe() would crash accessing the
drawable. This was needed to make it forget about the cairo surface we gave to
it for the pixmap that is being destroyed.
By moving the pixmap to the drawable, this whole issues goes away.

Whenever a titlebar of a client needed to be refreshed, all (possibly) four
titlebars would get completely refreshed. So if someone actually added more than
one titlebar to a client, awesome would copy each titlebar's content to the
window four times. Fix this by introducing more fine-grined functions for
uploads.
This also makes awesome only update the affected area when it gets an expose
event for a titlebar instead of all four titlebars completely.

Before this commit, we always threw away the drawin's cairo surface whenever it
was made visible and thus forced a redraw.
This commit changes this so that we only force a redraw if the drawin was
resized why it wasn't visible. To remember when this happens, we free the
drawin's cairo surface without allocating a new one when the drawin is resized
while not being visible. Thus, we then only have to allocate a new surface if
the drawin doesn't have one when it is being made visible.

When we receive a _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW request on the root window, we used to just
focus and raise the window. This didn't do much for clients which are on
non-selected tags.
Thus, this commit makes awesome emit request::activate on the client instead.
This is used in awful.ewmh to implement the old behavior again, but with
additionally marking the client as urgent if it isn't visible.
People who don't like this behavior can use client.disconnect_signal to disable
this behavior again. To make this really possible, awful.ewmh becomes a
"non-nil" module.

A drawin's and a client's bounding and clip shape can now be queried and is
returned as a cairo surface. Also, a client window's shape (e.g. xeyes setting
its own shape) can be queried via c.shape_client_bounding and
c.shape_client_clip. All of these properties now emit signals when changed.
(This also silently fixes a bug in luaA_drawin_set_shape_bounding() which forgot
to include the drawin's border in its size calculation)

This reverts commit c3bca6ac34.
This caused problems where clients would always spawn on the top-left screen and
couldn't be moved around. This was because lua placed them on the other screen,
but when the titlebar got added, their top-left corner was moved over again.
This kind of forces every client to have a window gravity of "static".
This fixes most of the problem of clients moving around across restarts due to
the titlebar. What is left is that they move due to the border width which
should be handled in another patch. Also, another patch should make this honor
the client's actual window gravity.

We no longer have to turn the client's content into an image buffer "by hand".
Instead, we can just use cairo for the job.
Even more exciting, we don't need to turn this into an image buffer at all. We
can just directly return a cairo xcb surface for the client window. Depending on
how lua will use this surface, this could make it possible to avoid having to
create the image buffer at all!

The size saved in c->geometry also includes the titlebars. Thus, for getting the

This commit ports awesome from libev to the glib main loop. This means that
awesome has fewer dependencies, because we were already depending on glib before

bindings for lua. This means that lua code can add all kinds of event sources to
the main loop (timeouts, fd watchers, SIGCHLD watchers, ....). Yay
