With this helper, it becomes possible to avoid manually setting common
properties such as the client in the tasklist of tag in the taglist when
the children widgets of the template have a set_+property_name.
This decision was taken out of necessity. While adding more style
elements to `awful.widget.common` isn't something I want, there is
little else to do here. The problem is that popup based lists only
have size constraints in one direction. So without a way to limit
the icon size, it will take 9999 pixels.
Instead of having the default template hardcoded as code, this turns the
template into a descriptive version. This makes it easier to come up
with own templates: Just copy the default template and make a slight
change to it.
No functional changes are intended, but I cannot rule out that I did no
mistakes.

The code here has things like "if cache.bgb" which suggests that "bgb"
(great name, by the way) is supposed to be optional. However,
31b8623ff6 made this thing definitely not optional by making it
*the* widget that is displayed. That feels wrong.
Also, after the above commit, the ".primary" entry is no longer used,
which is at least surprising for something which is called "primary".
None of this is explicitly documented (I didn't find anything when
looking for "primary" in common.lua nor tasklist.lua; I know that there
are examples for using this, but still that doesn't say how this is
supposed to work), so I'm not quite sure how this was intended to work.
Instead, I am just proposing this commit as a better fix with the above
rational and see what feedback I get...

This commit allow user defined delegates to be used as list elements.
This put an end to the endless attempt to cram more features into this
code.
A widget template (non-instantiated) is passed to the arguments and
is created by the common code. It also supports "roles" where some
user defined widgets can replace the old textbox or imagebox.
It does not provide much value. The version number is already known to
ldoc globally in the "description" variable.

No idea what the correct value for this argument is supposed to be, but since
there is no variable "m" in scope, this always uses nil as the value.

This allows the "label" callback to adjust the textbox itself.
`tasklist_label` is changed to make use of it and supports new style
arguments: `font_focus`, `font_urgent` and `font_minimized`.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/313.
Use `beautiful.xresources.apply_dpi` for `common.list_update`'s textbox
margins, and add a left margin for the imagebox, too.
The latter is useful/nicer with the default behavior of an inverted
style for the focused tasklist entry.
