This commit add an option to shim the whole wibox module when
running multi-screen tests. This is intended to lower the test
runtime when coverage is enabled.
In theory, most of that code is already covered by the
test-screen-changes suit.
This makes the coverage builds about twice as fast. This is
necessary because there is a large number of timeouts due to
limited resources on the Travis build system.
This is a partial revert of commit 7901a1c647. The end result is the
same, but the change from that commit is reverted and instead the same
thing is done in a different way.

I really try to avoid doing this, psychon too, but enough is
enough. We don't have a solution and I would rather add more
tests that work than keeping a test that keep "failing" just
to remind us it's there.
While testing using "the real deal" and with all the tests would be
better, it would add a lot of complexity to the testing framework.
This module generate multiple multi-screen scenarios and some obvious
issues that they can cause. Over time, as more steps are added, it
will provide "good enough" testing for multiple screens.
Individual test suits can require() this utility to replicate their
steps for each multi-screen scenarios.
