This layout allow each widgets to take 'r' percent of the total
space, where 'r' is configurable.
It re-implement the 'wfact' system used by `awful.layout.suit.tile`
This layout display the widgets on top of each other. It can also optionally
display only the first one.
The most common use case is to create a composited widget. Other use case
include the creation of a "paged" stack to only display the most
relevant widget without adding extra complexity to the parent layout.
This new syntax is inspired by the Awesome widget 3.2-3.4 API. It
allow cleaner widgets declaration. The produced code is usually much
shorted and easier to read than wibox.widget imperative syntax.
There is already a hack into `awful.widget.common`. This system aim
to make the hack obselete while preserving the useful part.
I think this is also necessary to properly support SVG (with DPI
and resize).
Finally, Qt handle this using the QBrush concept, where you can have
programmatic patterns. Cairo doesn't have this concept, so there is no
"clean" way to have programmatic brushes.
It's unused since commit 0aa4304bda. Before this was a stable sorting
algorithm since table.sort is allowed to be unstable. Apparently we don't need a
stable sorting algorithm anymore.

Until now, this layout was "append only". There was no official
APIs to remove, replace, insert and swap widgets. This is fine
for the usual wibox + sensors widget used by the majority of
users, but lack flexibility necessary to use the layout system
to place dynamic elements such as clients.
The methods introduced by this commit are also recursive. This
allow widgets to be decorated, wrapped and splitted without
having to add boilerplate code everywhere.
This remove duplicated code and will allow more "collection"
style layouts to be implemented without logic duplication.
This commit also do some small cleanup to remove duplicated
code now present in `awful.util`.

Without this fix `wibox.widget.textbox` ignores current theme font
setting and resets it to the initial one.
It becomes handy when the initial theme is tweaked during runtime, ie.
in `rc.lua`. Other AwesomeWM components like `awful` (taglist,
tasklist, menu) are aware and do respect the actual theme settings.

When emitting layout_changed, the widget is relayouted. If this doesn't actually
change anything, nothing will be redrawn. Thus, this also emits redraw_needed to
force redraws.
This fixes a race condition with some weird tray icons. A new tray icon is
created and the systray is updated. Then this new icon is destroyed immediately
again and at the same time another icon is created. Then, the systray isn't
updated since the number of icons (=the layout) did not actually change.
However, it needs to be updated and so we ended up with broken/missing icons.

If someone modifies a cairo surface and then sets the resulting object as the
image of an imagebox, the imagebox needs to redraw. Thus, since surfaces are
modifiable, we cannot assume that nothing changed when the same image is set
multiple times on an imagebox.
However, the dimensions of a surface cannot be changed and thus this does not
need to emit widget::layout_changed.

This function updates a hierarchy if the layout of some widgets changed. It does
nothing on the parts that did not change. This should be more efficient than
recomputing the whole hierarchy whenever something changes.
Once again, this has some positive results on the "benchmark test":
Before:
create wibox: 0.083016 sec/iter ( 13 iters, 1.161 sec for benchmark)
update textclock: 0.00391091 sec/iter (271 iters, 3.219 sec for benchmark)
relayout textclock: 0.00273234 sec/iter (397 iters, 1.087 sec for benchmark)
redraw textclock: 0.0010191 sec/iter (989 iters, 1.745 sec for benchmark)
After:
create wibox: 0.083146 sec/iter ( 13 iters, 1.163 sec for benchmark)
update textclock: 0.00170519 sec/iter (647 iters, 2.201 sec for benchmark)
relayout textclock: 0.000581637 sec/iter (1880 iters, 1.094 sec for benchmark)
redraw textclock: 0.0010167 sec/iter (997 iters, 1.773 sec for benchmark)
So again no difference for creating wiboxes (100.16% compared to before). This
time we also have no real difference for creating wiboxes (99.76%). Update (44%)
and relayout (21%) are improved a lot.

Before this, dependencies between widgets where implicitly discovered by
recursive calls to base.fit_widget() and base.layout_widget(). However, it is
too easy to get this wrong (just call one of these functions from outside of a
widget's :fit() / :layout() function) and the resulting mess would be hard to
debug.
Thus, this commit changes the API so that callers have to identify themselves
and we can explicitly record the dependency between the widgets involved.
This also fixes a bug where no dependencies were tracked for widgets after
:set_visible(false). Whoops...
Sorry for breaking the API for adding this.

When a complete repaint is scheduled, also do a relayout, because this is also
the case that we go through when the underlying cairo surface is resized. For
example, resizing a client with a titlebar would trigger this.
Also, going through this code path is necessary since this is the only place
where the dirty area is updated so that it includes "everything". Before this
change, nothing was actually redrawn, because the dirty area was empty.

These caches, well, cache the result of the :layout and :fit callbacks on
widgets.
Clearing caches is done by recording dependencies between a widget. When a call
to base.fit_widget() or base.layout_widget() recursively causes another call to
such a function, this means that the earlier widget depends on the later widget.
This dependency is recorded and when the later widget emits
widget::layout_changed, the caches of all the widgets involved are cleared.

This made it easier to figure out where a file causing an error was
coming from, but I could imagine that this could become too noisy, and
that there is/should probably be a more streamlined way to enable more
verbose logging / error output.
The old code transformed the top-left and bottom-right corner of the rectangle
to device space and calculated a rectangle based on these two points. However,
if you rotate a rectangle by 45°, these two points will be directly above each
other and thus the old code would calculate a width of 0.
Fix this by transforming all four corners of the rectangle into device space and
calculating a rectangle based on this.

Previously, odd things could happen if a widget was getting fitted into a
negative width or, even worse, width being NaN (not a number)!
This can e.g. happen due to a margin layout which doesn't get enough space to
even draw the margin that it is supposed to add.
Fix this by enforcing a minimum value of 0 for the width and height that a
widget gets fitted into.

Given an imagebox i with i.resize_forbidden = false and a valid image set, the
call t:fit(0, 0) would return two times "not a number".
This is because the code first does some calculations to get the input image
into the available space and then tried to do some calculations needed for
scaling images up.
The first calculation already gave us h == 0 == w, the second calculation would
then calculate 0/0. This results in NaNs.
This was only noticed because NaN is not a valid table index in lua.
Fix this by returning 0,0 if we have an image of width or height 0 after the
first calculation. Since 0x0 images are valid in cairo, this also fixes the same
bug with such images.

If a drawable has an opaque background, we don't need pseudo transparency and
thus its content don't change when it is moved. However, when we need pseudo
transparency, then we have to redraw the drawable to apply the new background.
Previously we just always did the redraw. This commit adds a helper function
gears.color.create_opaque_pattern() that analyzes a cairo pattern for
transparency. We use this new function to only redraw-on-move when there is
actual pseudo transparency in effect. Otherwise, this redraw can be skipped.

The "inside" mode is the default and will result in the original behavior. The

or not.) Further functionality can be had by ommiting one of the outside
widgets. Set default layout mode in the constructor.

This commit adds and uses wibox.layout.base.fit_widget(). This function is a
wrapper for widget:fit() that caches the result and thus speeds things up.
This is necessary because some layouts call :fit() from their :fit() and :draw()
functions. Nesting such layouts means that at the widget at the tail of the
stack gets its :fit() function called quite often. If this function is not
blazingly fast, this results in noticeable slowness.

The systray widget's fit() function worked in the (rotated) user coordinate
space while the draw() function used device coordinates (unrotated). This meant
that width and height were swapped up in the calculations and the systray ended
up being way too small.
Fix this by making the draw() function use user coordinates, too. This means
that it needs some new magic to detect a rotated coordinate space. This, in
turn, means that the systray is now automatically rotated when you put it into a
rotate layout.
This might cause some minor breakage because people no longer need to call
:set_horizontal() on the widgets.
