This allow to spawn something, then apply some properties or rules when
the client show up ("manage").
This commit add:
* "startup_id" property for all clients object (immutable, can be nil)
* Second return value to awful.util.spawn() with the startup_id
* Update the documentation
Example:
local wait_for_it = {}
local pid,snid = awful.util.spawn("urxvtc")
wait_for_it[snid] = {ontop=true,sticky=false,
tag = awful.tag.gettags(mouse.screen)[1] }
client.connect_signal("manage", function (c, startup)
if c.startup_id and wait_for_it[c.startup_id] then
for k,v in pairs(wait_for_it[c.startup_id]) do
c[k] = v
end
if wait_for_it[c.startup_id].tag then
c:tags({wait_for_it[c.startup_id].tag})
end
end
end)

This allows for having clones of a table, where its entries are still
references to the original values.
This is useful for copying a "default props" table, where you want to
keep the reference to entries like `awful.layout.suit.tile`.

Ever since commit 6b2e4352b (from 2010!), awesome.spawn() doesn't have a screen
argument anymore and the extra argument from util.spawn was just ignored. Fix
the code and the luadoc for these functions.
Thanks to blueyed for noticing this.

Thanks to the previous commit, spawn_with_shell() can now easily fix lots of
problems that we previously had with escaping the argument to the shell.

The modules awful.menu and awful.util were placing variables in the global
environment which is a bad thing. Fix this by adding the right module name
prefixes to these variables.

The function awful.screen.focus_bydirection changes the screen focus
according to physical position. The code is based on
awful.client.focus.bydirection.

Many themes have prerendered icons of different sizes stored in
subdirectories named as '<size>x<size>'. By looking in these directories
when a specific icon size is specified, we can support themes in a
rather straightforward way.

To avoid collision and confusion with other methods having the same name. So,
awful.client.cycle -> awful.client.iterate (renamed)
awful.util.table.cycle -> awful.util.table.iterate (renamed)
These methods were added in commit "add awful.client.cycle", and "add
awful.util.table.cycle".

add awful.util.table.cycle to iterate through elements that match given
condition
This will help writing concise code when one wants to apply a function to
(read, take some action) on a select list of elements in a table (of say,
clients and tags).

This option is no longer valid in modelines, so it has been removed from
all modelines using the following shellscript:
#!/bin/ksh
git ls-tree -r HEAD | cut -f2 | while read f; do
egrep -e '^(//|--) vim: .*encoding=' $f >/dev/null || continue
sed -E -e '/^(\/\/|--) vim:/s/:encoding=utf-8//' $f > /tmp/foo
mv /tmp/foo $f
done

Implementing vararg functions via arg is deprecated in lua. This kind of thing
should instead be done via "...".

This is useful because tables get passed by reference instead of by
value, so we might end up modifying tables where we don't want it.

My local config got a module which denies functions from adding new functions
to the global context or to a module's local context. I use this for catching
typos (think misspelled variable names).
This patch "fixes" a false-positive which was caused by this.

This is to avoid confusion with Lua's table.concat which takes a table
and returns a string of all its elements concatenated with a given
separator.

Just a minor change: since capi.awesome.spawn does a double fork, there
is no need to use a '&' to background the spawned process.
Cheers.
