`gears.wallpaper` is a flat API (that doesn't even belong in gears) and
is neither well integrated with the other AwesomeWM concepts, nor well
documented or easy to understand for newcomers.
This module adds an object oriented, declarative, module with properties
for the most common wallpaper types. It also integrates with
`awful.placement` and the `wibox` module.
The design attempts to make the wallpaper a "wibox like" object like
the titlebars. It is non-interactive, but still allows the widgets. Note
that this is slow and should be avoided for dynamic content. It is why
the widgets are never updated unless manually reloaded. The objects also
attempt to be disposable rather than persistent. Thus they are immutable
by default to prevent accidental abuse.
Fix#3428#2596
The default `rc.lua` was using the focus/unfocus signals to set
the border color along with `awful.rules`. This logic block was
no longer aligned with the rest of `rc.lua` since it was
the only place where `beautiful` variables where only used by
`rc.lua`.
On top of this, the new request handler also has extra contexts
for the urgent and floating/maximixed use cases. So it can be used
by themes to implement much smarter borders than just focus based
ones. They were previously limited by the fact most of the
(un-monkey-patchable) logic was in `rc.lua`.
Note that this commit also shuffle the awful.rules order between
the titlebar and the border and changes the tests accordignly.
After some consideration, I came to the conclusion the previous
behavior was bogus and the fact that the placement tests required
to know about the titlebar height is simply a proof of that. The
change was required in this commit because since the border is no
longer in the default rules, a new buggy edge case surfaced.
Test the behavior of awful.placement.no_overlap when placing clients on
unselected tags. Currently this tests only the most common case with
only a single selected tag and a single tag set for each client.

Clients which are sticky should be taken into account by
awful.placement.no_overlap even if they seem to be on a different tag;
add a test to verify this behavior.

Clients which are hidden or minimized should be ignored by
awful.placement.no_overlap; add a test to verify this behavior.

In order to test the behavior of awful.placement.no_overlap with
unselected tags, the test sequence must be able to run multiple times.
Fix the test code to make this possible (currently it just performs the
same sequence 3 times, the code to actually test the behavior with
different tags will be added later).
Indentation is unchanged to make the changes obvious in diff; the next
commit will contain formatting changes without anything else.

Test that the placement function used in the default configuration
behaves as intended. This test was failing before the no_overlap and
no_offscreen fixes in two previous commits.
