These files do not need to be executable and the commits which made
these executable apparently only did so accidentally (Commits
37684abe33 and bfc6065ad9).

I am no longer sure why I added this file. It doesn't really belong into
the awesome source code. It is better suited to be added to our web
page, I think.

I really try to avoid doing this, psychon too, but enough is

tests that work than keeping a test that keep "failing" just
to remind us it's there.

Uli Schlachter 13e8088d62 Handle unexpected XCB failures (#1260)
We have many places where we are sending an XCB request and expect an
answer where the protocol guarantees that no error can occur and we are
sure to get an answer. However, for example if the X11 server crashes,
these places can still fail. This commit tries to handle failures at all
these places.

I went through the code and tried to add missing error checking (well,
NULL-pointer-checking) to all affected places.

In most cases these errors are just silently ignored. The exception is
in screen querying during startup. If, for example, querying RandR info
fails, we will fall back to Xinerama or zaphod mode. This is serious
enough that it warrants a warning. In most cases, we should exit shortly
afterwards anyway, because, as explained above, these requests should
only fail when our connection to the X11 server breaks.

Uli Schlachter 9a5092226a awful.wibox.stretch: Spell out full replacement
The function that is documented as awful.wibox.stretch is deprecated,
because it was removed (that's not a deprecation, is it?!?). For the
replacement, we used "@see stretch". However, LDoc was randomly
resolving this reference to awful.wibar.stretch (good) or
awful.wibox.stretch (bad; the see points to the element where it
appears).

Fix this by spelling out the "full name" of the function in the @see.

Uli Schlachter 1784518415 Add pointless naughty.lua and beautiful.lua files (#1259)
People who use a plain "make install" to install awesome will likely
also use the same approach to update their installation. However, this
does not actually work, because in awesome 3.5 there are beautiful.lua
and naughty.lua. These modules have since been split up into multiple
files and we now have beauitful/init.lua and naughty/init.lua instead.
The result is that the newer awesome will use some code from an older
version of awesome.

This commit has a work-around for this: We add "empty" beautiful.lua and
naughty.lua files whose only purpose is to load the real file. These
"empty" files will then overwrite files from an older installation and
everything works.

Sadly, this bad hack will have to be kept around forever and in the
future we will only have more instances of it. I would like to just say
people to fix their system, but apparently this should be worked around
instead.

Uli Schlachter 9f2c4719ed Make the piechart deterministic (#1258)
Previously, the API to set the data that should be displayed was
:set_data(t) where t is a table. This table has the labels to use as its
keys and the numbers as its values. With this API, it was not possible
to influence the order in which the "pie pieces" were drawn.

This commit adds and uses a new API called :set_data_list(t). Here, t is
a table with integer keys and tables as values, thus one can iterate
over this with ipairs() and the order is well-defined. The tables used
as values contain the label as their first entry and the number as their
second entry.

Emmanuel Lepage Vallee 26c0a3c2c5 cmake: Check dependencies one by one
It was currently done all at once. Therefore, the error message was:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:415 (message):
  A required package was not found

With no further information besides the full dependency list.

With this change, it will print the missing package.

Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/1253.

Uli Schlachter 5d81441c76 Make the resize_to_mouse example test deterministic (#1250)
This test has a list of "things" that should be present in the output. This
table is iterated over via pairs(), which means that the output is
non-deterministic and the order of the entries is basically random.

Fix this by using ipairs() to get a deterministic iteration order. This requires
some slight change to the table that is iterated over.

There we go again... When hitting a slow CI node, there is again

increase the timeout.
