* Better widget names when using the declarative syntax
* Add ratio.get_ratio to avoid using the private API
* Also support `set_widget` when swapping widgets
Issues involve:
- :layout() had the wrong signature and expected a cr argument that was left
from when this was still the :draw() function.
- horizontal and vertical reflection were mixed up (I guess it has always been
this way?)
- The return value should be a table of widget placements. Instead it was just a
single widget placement.
This is broken since commit 85ab3f045b.

There seem to be a little race condition (either in my layout code or
elsewhere) when playing with multiple screens. As most properties do
not depend on the tag, there is no point in returning early anyway.
Instead of true/false `merge` can be a callback now, which allows for
more dynamic handling of the client not being visible, e.g. moving it to
the current tag, instead of merging.
It was missing apps/entries from /usr/share/applications/kde4.
This patch also makes sure that entries are unique (by Exec/Name).
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/711.
Wallpapers are usually big images that use up a lot of memory. This commit makes
gears.wallpaper call :finish() on all involved surface to make them free their
memory.
This is a lot faster than waiting for the garbage collector to collect these
surfaces. Due to the large size of wallpapers, such a special case makes sense
for this code.

Loading a file normally has the same behaviour as before. First the cache is
checked and if nothing is found, the file is loaded and cached.
This commit changes the behaviour of loading a file uncached. This no longer
removes the file from the cache if it is cached (why should it?) and also does
not put it in the cache.
This means that users of load_uncached and load_uncached_silently can now freely
modify the resulting surface without interfering with other API users.

This makes awful.tooltip create its tooltip lazily when it is first needed
instead of immediately when the tooltip is created.

This commit makes these methods invoke the method on a widget in a protected
context. Thanks to this, e.g. the wibox and other widgets are protected from
errors in a child widget.
Additionally, fit_widget() now assumes 0 if a widget's :fit() method didn't
provide a number.

This library is a wrapper around pcall() / xpcall() that prints an error message
via gears.debug.print_error() in case of errors.

I just spent too much time tracking down a bug that happened while drawing a
widget. This is the reason why we should apply sanity checks while widgets are
constructed, so that we get a useful backtrace.

This makes the code use the existing functions for setting widgets. That way,
all the sanity checks that the existing functions have are applied for this code
as well.
I just spent half an hour tracking down a bug where a boolean ended up as a
"widget" in a fixed layout. The symptom was that while drawing the widget, an
error happened. Via this change, the error would instead be flagged while
constructing the widget.

Because all our Lua code can now work with screen objects, most of the uses of
s.index that the previous patches added for reaching this goal can be removed
again.

This commit makes the code in awful.client work with screen objects where
possible (which is not possible in awful.client.movetoscreen() because it uses
screen_idx + 1).

This commits makes a random selection of modules in awful support screen objects
and accept them as parameters everywhere where a screen index is accepted.
Signed-off-by: Uli Schlachter <psychon@znc.in>
This commit documents that a textbox already accepts a screen object where a
screen index is expected. Also, this changes the widget API in that a widget's
context.screen is now a screen object instead of a screen index.

This commit makes awful.ewmh re-apply the maximized geometry to any maximized
clients when the workarea of a screen changes. This happens e.g. when a wibox
that is docked to the edge of the screen is hidden.

This avoids having to mock half the C API just because all of awful is loaded
needlessly in this unit test and is generally a good idea.
