Pressing CTRL+DELETE removes the visible history entry, if any, then moves to the next history entry (like pressing DOWN would do).
If the last history entry is removed the previous one is shown in the prompt (like pressing UP would do).
CTRL+DELETE works on history entries only: i.e. it has no effect on a command entered but not executed yet.
To implement above behaviour I added saving history table to file on Escape key press.

This reverts commit 20afb26080.
The commit caused endless loops with tracebacks like this (shortened):

When a client's geometry changes (and I consider the border width to be part of
the geometry here) and that client is one of fullscreen or
maximized_{horizontally,vertically}, make sure that the geometry as specified by
the state is still obeyed.
This also (accidentally) fixes things when a client gets moved to another

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.

When an area is split in two, for example horizontally, one of the windows
should have height math.floor(previous height / 2) and the other
math.ceil(previous height / 2), to be certain that no gaps are left between the
windows.
For instance, if the first window has height h and the second window has height
math.floor(h / 2), the height of the third window should be math.ceil(h / 2)
instead of the same as for the second window.
So to compute the size of window n + 1 it’s necessary to remember the size of
window n - 1 as well as that of window n.

When awesome restarts because a new screen was added or removed, clients can end
up being on a different screen than before the restart. However, the tags will
be carried across the restart. This means that a client could end up being
tagged with a tag from another screen. This results in weird behavior of tag
switches and confuses users.
To work around this, remove the client from any tags that are on a different
screen during startup. If the client ends up without any tags, it will then be
tagged with the currently selected tags.

This commit adds and uses wibox.layout.base.fit_widget(). This function is a
wrapper for widget:fit() that caches the result and thus speeds things up.
This is necessary because some layouts call :fit() from their :fit() and :draw()
functions. Nesting such layouts means that at the widget at the tail of the
stack gets its :fit() function called quite often. If this function is not
blazingly fast, this results in noticeable slowness.

Since only the body text of a notification may contain markup,
by combining the two together and calling set_markup(), the
title would also get interpreted as if it had markup.
This could be seen with:
$ notify-send "Title & text" "<i>body text</i>"
The unescaped & would get interpreted as broken markup and so
naughty would fall back to escaping everything which would make
the "<i>" tags be shown rather than interpreted.
So, the title must always be escaped so that it is not interpreted
as markup.

Since commit d8a93dafa3, tags have an "index" property which decides about
the order in which they are displayed in the taglist. If a tag doesn't have this
property set, the next call to awful.tag.gettags() will fix this and "invent" an
index for this new tag.
However, if multiple tags didn't have an "index" property, gettags() would
assign all of them the same index. The following call to table.sort() would then
do random magic to these tags (remember: table.sort() is not a stable sorting
algorithm, so it is allowed to randomly swap around entries which have the same
sorting key).
Fix this by making sure that the new "index" properties are different from each
other.

The systray widget's fit() function worked in the (rotated) user coordinate
space while the draw() function used device coordinates (unrotated). This meant
that width and height were swapped up in the calculations and the systray ended
up being way too small.
Fix this by making the draw() function use user coordinates, too. This means
that it needs some new magic to detect a rotated coordinate space. This, in
turn, means that the systray is now automatically rotated when you put it into a
rotate layout.
This might cause some minor breakage because people no longer need to call
:set_horizontal() on the widgets.
