This moves selection_acquire to selection.acquire, selection_getter to
selection.getter and selection_watcher to selection.watcher. The only
user-visible change due to this is that type(selection) is now "table"
instead of "function". If that breaks something for you, tough luck.

This is inspired to be a correctness fix: The "hints" argument to
notifications is supposed to have type a{sv}, i.e. this maps from string
keys to some generic value. dbus-send does not support this and instead
it sends an argument of type a{ss}, i.e. a mapping from string to
string. This commit fixes this problem and uses the correct type.

The first step of a test is called 20 times before a failure is
diagnosed. Later steps only get five calls to finish. I guess the idea
is that the first step sets everything up and opens all necessary
clients, while later steps then do something with these clients.
However, looking at our existing tests, they are not structured like
that. Later steps open more clients etc.
Since this limit has no negative impact on the run-time of tests, but
only means that failures are detected later, let's just remove this
limit of five calls.

When a string is spawned, the C code has to split this into an array for
the execve() syscall. When an array is given directly, this array does
not need to be transformed in any way. This makes it much more clear
what is actually started.
This commit removes some quotation marks that were previously removed by
the C code. For example,
array:string:1,"four",2,"five",3,"six"
became
array:string:1,four,2,five,3,six
because otherwise the action was called "four" instead of four and the
test failed.

As requested in the review, instead of just having a single string
argument, selection_acquire() now has a table as its argument. It
searches the string under the "selection" key here.

This new test suit add a rather extensive coverage to the "legacy"
notification popups. A few minor bugs have been found and fixed
and we can rest assured that the new spec 1.2 support and extended
manipulation API wont regress existing configs.
This adds require("_date") to some example tests that use the current
date via os.date. This allows reproducibility by replacing os.date()
with a function that uses a static date from $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH. See
commit 9d7eaf0 for more details.

It also add some properties such as `border_width`, `border_color`
and `preferred_alignments`.
It also fix a documentation bug where the `margin_topleft` was called
`margins_topleft`. To conform to the documentation, both are now valid
but one should be removed the next time the API changes.
Fixes#1978
To happen, both of these races have to be lost by client3
* client2 have to take more time to `:kill()` than client3 take
to be spawned.
* client4 have to start faster than client3
It is very unlikely to happen on normal systems, but on server it
happens. Some factor that may or may not be involved
* The scheduler assigned client2 on a very busy CPU and client 3
on a CPU still busy while some other CPUs are idle
* Linux is bad at scheduling hyper-threading
* The system is NUMA and the memory bandwidth is lacking on a core
* There is some "Z" memory compression or drive based swap
* Extreme bad luck
Fix#2424
In the earlier revision of the keygrabber PR, there was a `release_key`
and it was suggested to rename it `stop_key`. However its sibling
`release_event` wasn't, so it is now confusing.
The commit adds a mild deprecation codepath to avoid breaking configs
based on git-master. However it isn't a "long term" deprecation notice
and the code can probably be removed in 5.0 without further delay.
