This allow layout "arrange" to be called less often and react on
the cause of the change itself rather than it's consequences
(usually, the "focus" signal).
Previously, the layout were re-arranged everytime the focus changed.
Now, with "raised" and "lowered", it require less "arrange".
"swapped" allow smarted layouts. Currently, swapped cause a full
re-arrange. It re-read the "index" list from scratch and create
a "new" layout. With "swapped", incremental layout changes are
possible.

This adds functions for getting directories according to the XDG base dir

This also adds a function for getting the cache dir, because I like an explicit

Better error messages if you mis-type something. :-)
Finally, this adds a function for getting the directory containing the rc.lua

I have no idea why this needs collectgarbage() to be called twice.
On the other hand, I can explain the change in tooltip.lua. Lua 5.2 introduced
"ephermeron tables". This means that in the following sitation, lua 5.2 can
collect the entry from the table, while 5.1 keeps the entry alive, because the
table has a strong reference to the value and that in turn has a strong
reference to the key:
t = setmetatable({}, { __mode = "k"})
do
local k = {}
t[k] = function() print(k) end
end
collectgarbage("collect")
print(next(t, nil))

Instead of connecting to the needed tag-update-signal again for every layoutbox,
this now just creates a single connection and updates all layoutboxes from here.
A new weak table is used to find the layoutboxes from these callbacks.
Additionally, layoutboxes are now per-screen unique. So even if you try to
create three layoutboxes for screen 1, the code will now always return the same
instance.
This kind-of fixes the leak test for layoutboxes. The problem is that the
default config also creates a layoutbox and adds it to a wibox. Since this is
now the same layoutbox, the test still fails. Just removing the layoutbox-part
from the default config makes this problem go away.

This fixes the textclock-specific part of the test that the previous commit
added.
To fix this, gears.timer.weak_start_new() is used. This function creates a timer
that is automatically stopped when its callback function is garbage collected.
The callback function is saved as a member of the texbox widget that is the
"widget behind the textclock". Thus, the timer can only be stopped after the
widget is garbage-collected, but the timer does not keep the widget alive.

When a client is not visible, this would adjust its stacking order
still.
This also addresses https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/472,
because it raises unminimized clients after they got focused.
This is used by `tooltip.place` then to tie the tooltip to the screen of
the mouse. Without this, a tooltip from the tasklist might get moved to
the screen above the tasklist, if it gets considered to be on that
screen given its coordinates.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/437.
Extend the range of the 'group_names' patterns which is currently
restricted to typical ones like
pc+us+ru:2+de:3+ba:4+inet

macintosh_vndr/apple(alukbd)+macintosh_vndr/jp(usmac)+macintosh_vndr/jp(mac):2
so that the keyboardlayout widget can handles all possible patterns
returned by awesome.xkb_get_layout_group().
The default config has this:
awful.key({ modkey, }, "o", awful.client.movetoscreen ),
This moves the client to the next screen and focuses that screen.
But it does not ensure that the client is raised above any existing
windows, e.g. when moving a floating client.
This patch emits the `request::activate` signal if the client is
currently focused, but only if the screen property actually has changed.
Closes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/98.

This new function spawns a program, similarly to awful.spawn, but captures its
output. On each line of output on stdout / stderr, a Lua function is called with
this line. There are different callbacks for stdout and stderr. When both stdout
and stderr are closed, another callback function is called. The intention for
this last callback is "the program is done", because most programs should only
close their output when they exit.

Because of `placement.under_mouse` (and without
`placement.no_offscreen` fixing it), this will cause the tooltip to hide
immediately again.
There is no need for hooking into this signal, but this adds a click
handler to close the tooltip when clicking into it.
This splits the logic for `delay_show` out of `show`/`hide`, and handles
an already stopped timer. The timer gets also stopped after the tooltip
has been displayed.

18f6ab1 changed the behavior when resizing floating clients using the

Previously, you could initiate the mousegrabber using e.g. "modkey +
RMB", release the key and button, and resize the window using the left
mouse button.
This restores this behavior by canceling the mousegrabbers only if the
cursor was moved, without _any_ mouse button being pressed.

In #152 I've changed the autofocus handler to emit the request::activate
signal, instead of setting client.focus only.
This is wrong IMHO, and can be annoying:
If you have two floating clients above a tiled / maximized one, and
close one of the floating ones, with the tiled one being the one
selected by autofocus, it will be raised above the other floating
client.
This is changed now to use the new `request::focus` signal instead.
This basically reverts 20cdb5d (#152), but allows for customizing this
behavior, by overriding the default `request::focus` handler
(`ewmh.focus`).
It would be nice if there was a helper to check if a window's content
isn't visible at all (i.e. covered by other windows), and that could be
used then by the (new) default handler for request::focus - raising the
client only, if it's completely covered by another window.
Fixes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/217
This still does `client.focus = c` by default, but allows to customize
it.
This was initially suggested in #194, but by using `request::activate`
instead, which would not be the same. Therefore a new signal is being
used instead.

When moving a fullscreen/maximized client to a smaller screen or with
different Y offset etc, its offset was not handled properly.
This moves it first into the new area, and then makes sure that its not
off-screen. The latter should not happen, because the width/height is
adjusted before.
This is basically an initial stab for some modules and some

After a client gets unmanaged, the newly focused client might not be
visible / raised above other windows.
Using the `request::activate` signal makes the autofocus handler more
flexible, and will raise the focused client by default.
This avoids awful.autofocus to kick in, focusing some other client in
between (where a focused signal would get emitted for, although the
intermediate client was never meant to have focus).

it at the screen's x/y offset.
Test case with gvim, from a maximized terminal on a floating tag:
% gvim -u NONE -N --cmd "set lines=$((LINES + 5))"
Without this patch the top of the window is off-screen, but the bottom
should be. Fixing it using a number of lines that fit the screen should
display the window completely.
The 'request::activate' signal should be sent and handled immediately,
and not delayed. It was too much of a hack to work around the client
not being visible.
Instead, the "is visible" constraint on `capi.client.focus` will be
removed.

This fix two things:
(1) Clients asking to be urgent while focussed, this have been reported

not be considered a bug by some, but I think it is.
(2) Add the ability to stop noisy clients from setting the urgent state
themselves.
When loading persistent properties for a client, the loop value wasn't used,
but the original/requested property. This would only get triggered when
using more than one persistent client property (the default is one,
"floating").
That commit made awful.tag use timer.delayed_call() to call withcurrent() during
the manage signal. The idea was "if nothing else assigns any tags until the end,
apply some default ones".
However, the C core refuses to set the input focus to an unviewable client and
thus this means that setting the input focus during manage failed. So, instead
of using the delayed_call(), just call withcurrent() directly, like we did
before.
However, some part of that commit is still left: Awful.rules no longer
disconnects the withcurrent() callback from the "manage" signal. This was
originally added in commit 5e7ddd1efa, because it clients flickered otherwise if
they were moved to some unselected tag during "manage". This happened because
the C code unbanned the client when it got assigned the input focus and only
later did some other code move it to some unselected tag.
However, this flickering will no longer occur, because commit 3dbf89c990 added
lazy focus setting. Thanks to this, setting the focus no longer unbans a client
as a side-effect. Thus, if you focus a client and then remove it from all
selected tags, nothing will be visible on-screen.
To make a long story short: This commit reverts the part of commit 90fde1393f
which caused side effects. The part that wasn't necessary any more is left in.
