Fullscreen clients shouldn't be decorated, thus hide titlebars on those.

Previously, the area of the window that the client could draw to got smaller
when titlebars are added. This causes all sorts of odd-looking effects, so
instead this should enlarge the window suitably.
Signed-off-by: Uli Schlachter <psychon@znc.in>
The code was sending out ConfigureNotify events which contained the size of the
frame window. Thus, the client assumed that it is was larger than it actually
was.
Fix this by subtracting the size of the titlebars from the geometry for the
event.

We only need to update a drawin's drawing related resources when its size
changes. Thus, when a drawin is just moved, drawin_update_drawing() is not
called. However, this function was used for telling the drawin's drawable about
its geometry. This means that the drawable had an outdated idea about what its
geometry was.
Fix this by making sure to always call drawable_set_geometry().

This commit makes it possible to add titlebars to a client. These titlebars are
drawables.
The drawin's input handling is moved to the drawable. This allows it to use the
same code for drawin and titlebar input handling, although there are lots of
differences between the two on the C side.
On the lua side, a new wibox.drawable module is created which handles all the
drawable-specific magic and which can also be used for titlebars.

A drawable is something that you can draw to, just like a drawin. However, a

When something gives the input focus to the client which already has the input
focus, bad things can happen. Normally, you'd expect nothing to happen in this
case, but X11 is not that simple.
When updating the input focus and the focused client has the nofocus hint set,
we are actually taking away the focus from this client.
Hopefully this fixes FS#973.

Previously, when we received a FocusIn event, we would update the input focus,
because client_focus_update set globalconf.focus.need_update to true.
However, this is wrong for clients following the globally active focus model,

focus. It could happen that we thus took away the focus from the client which
just gave itself the focus.

This moves the loading of the rc.lua and managing of pre-existing clients to
after we ungrab the server during startup. To make sure we have no races with
clients which start up parallel to awesome, we do the QueryTree for all the
clients that we have to manage before the ungrab, but start managing the clients
only after the ungrab.
This means that we have already selected our event mask on the root window in
scan() and thus received an UnmapNotify event when we reparent windows into a
frame window. This has the effect that we immediately unmanage the client again,
whoops.
To fix this, we grab the server again and remove our event mask on the root
window again while we reparent.
This should hopefully fix all cases where we deadlock during startup because
pulseaudio wants to talk to the X server, but is being ignored because we have
the server grabbed while at the same time we are waiting for pulseaudio.

Open some windows, select a layout which does something (=not floating) and
restart awesome. It's likely that it will crash during the shutdown.
The reason is that awesome cleans up various state before going down. This is
mostly all the lua state. However, drawin_wipe, which is called for cleaning up
after a drawin, dared to emit a sigal which then let various lua code run which
had access to objects which were already destroyed.
Various bad things can happen this way, in this situation it was a crash when an
already-destroyed client was resized.
The fix is to move the signal out of drawin_wipe. It doesn't belong there
anyway. Instead, property::workarea should be emitted when the drawin's visible
property changes as this is when the workarea changes, too (screen_area_get()
only looks at visible drawins).

This fixes a crash when the opacity of a not-visible drawin is changed. This
happened because we got a PropertyNotify for our own change of _NET_WM_OPACITY

However, the drawin was only reachable through globalconf.drawins and wasn't
ref'd in lua. This means that the luaA_object_push() call in
property_handle_net_wm_opacity() didn't find the drawin and instead pushed a
nil. This then later caused an unprotected lua error in window_set_opacity().

When one sets a client to fullscreen, this is what currently happens:
- lua code: c.fullscreen = true
- The C code emits request::fullscreen without having touched the client's
fullscreen property yet (c.fullscreen is still false)
- awful.ewmh changes the client's geometry to fullscreen via c:geometry()
- This causes property::geometry to be emitted
- awful.layout reacts on this and causes the screen to be re-arranged, undoing
the fullscreen geometry set in awful.ewmh
- The C code for c.fullscreen = true continues and actually changes the client's
fullscreen flag
The result of this is that we get a client which thinks it is fullscreen'd
without actually being that.
Fix this by first changing the client's fullscreen property and then emitting
request::fullscreen. Same thing for maximized_{vertical,horizontal}.

Currently wiboxes have their background set to "inherit parent pixmap". That
means that each time a wibox is e.g. resized, the X server sets the wibox'
content to the wallpaper and then immediately awesome redraws the wibox with the
proper background. This causes flicker when you e.g. resize clients which have a
titlebar.
With this patch, wiboxes get their proper background color for their "back
pixel" value. Now, instead of showing the wallpaper, the X server will fill the
complete wibox with its background color.
With this patch, the actual widgets will still flicker. Also, if the wibox has a
background image, this image obviously won't be used by the X server and we get
some flicker again. My next patch will address these issues.
