The code in menubar.icon_theme naively implements the algorithm from the
base dir specification. This is a problem: On this system,
/usr/share/icons/{Adwaita,hicolor}/index.theme list 91, respectively 649
subdirectories. Since we check for three file extensions (png, svg,
xpm), this means that a failing icon lookup for the Adwaita theme checks
for (91+649)*3 = 2220 files (in practice it might be a bit better since
the directories have specific meanings, but still). That's insane.
Since we only use this code for looking up category icons anyway, just
deprecate this mess. Category icons are now looked up in the same way
that icons for individual applications are looked up.
Since menubar.init does not require("menubar.icon_theme"), this means
that menubar.icon_theme is no longer actually loaded. That's bad.

This is a slight API break, but should not cause many problems for
people. This makes parse_desktop_file() handle the type of keys
correctly, so that e.g. booleans are actually parsed as booleans. Also,
locale-sensitive entries are now looked up in a way that obeys the
current locale.

This replaces our own, hand-written parser of desktop files with the one
that GLib provides. No functional changes intended.

Running test-menubar.lua just failed for me locally. The reason was that
the textbox was indexing a nil value when doing 's.dpi'.
This commit fixes the menubar so that its optional screen arguments are
really handled correctly. In fact, a default screen is now chosen way
earlier than before, so that no nil values are used as screens later on.
In other news: I guess test-menubar.lua is not run on any of our Travis
targets...

* Unescape strings when parsing desktop entries
* Fix unused value warning in menubar/utils.lua
* Move menubar.utils.unescape() tests
* Clean up menubar.utils.unescape() function
* Fix warning for using "_" in a non-local context
* Do not ignore trailing whitespace in menubar.utils.parse_list()
This now runs parse_desktop_file in a protected context so that a single
broken desktop file does not break the whole menubar.
Also, the error message that is produced when a Lua error occurs now
also includes the file name of the .desktop file which we attempted to
parse. This should help quite a lot in debugging.

The return value for this function is used as an index in a table and
Lua does not like nil as an index.
The function that actually looks for icons, find_icon_theme() already
falls back to "hicolor" if it does not find anything via the current
theme, so fix this issue by just falling back to "hicolor" here as well.

LGI's async support was trying to yield inside a protected call. Lua 5.1
cannot do that. Work around this by reverting to the behaviour before
commit 50cfa6c: Only call the callback in a protected context.

The previous commit made this code handle invalid directories correctly.
However, it was still possible that we come across invalid file names
for which :get_path() returns nil and then we assumed this was a file
name.
Fix this by silently ignoring such files.

Before this commit, the code always used GFile instances, then used
get_path() for a recursive call and turned the path into a GFile
instance again. This is not only inefficient, but also causes issues
with directories with invalid utf8, because the get_path function
returns nil in this case.
Fix this by keeping things as a GFile all the time.

The freedesktop specifications let desktop files be stored in
different directories indicated by the environment variables
XDG_DATA_HOME and XDG_DATA_DIRS.
Only use the default value for these variables if the variables are
not defined.
This is important for systmes like NixOS which does not follow the LFS
and installs files differently.
The $XDG_DATA_HOME environment variable may not necessarily end in a
slash, so insert it when generating the list of all menu dirs to make
sure the directory can be found.
This changes a line of code that was added in the previous commit.
Previously, when menubar.cache_entries was set to false,
menubar.refresh() was called twice.

The function seems useless and its documentation is wrong. It does not
return a wibox, but a widget. Also, the widget cannot really be used on
its own since it depends on the size of the wibox.
So menubar.get() and its wrapper through the metatable __call should
just be removed. Until then, the needed initialisation code is moved
around a bit and the function is deprecated.

When menubar.refresh() is called, it tries to update the menubar widget.
The call chain looks like this: menulist_update -> common.list_update ->
get_current_page. get_current_page then tries to query information about
the size of the menubar.
Since there is not much point in this, just skip the whole callback in
this case.
Side note: What is the point of menubar.get()? It seems quite useless to
me.

When awesome calls any Lua code, it does so with a protected call. This
means that any kind of Lua error should (there are exceptions) just
result in an error message being printed and everything continuing as
usual. When LGI calls Lua code, it uses a normal call. This means that
in an asynchronous context, that is, when there is no more call
generated by awesome's C code on the call stack, we must be careful,
since any error results in Awesome's unprotected error handler to be
called which restarts the WM.
menubar.utils.parse_dir() asynchronously parses a directory containing
.desktop files. This means that it is no longer in a protected call
context. Let's assume that the code itself is fine. However, the
callback that the caller provided for handling the results can be quite
arbitrary. Make sure that it is run in a protected context.
