make layout dependent on tags

 Suppose this git is checked out at `~/.config/awesome/layout-machi`

-machi_editor = machi.editor.create()

+The package provide a default layout `machi.default_layout` and editor `machi.default_editor`, which can be added into the layout list.

-Then add the `machi_layout` in your tag layouts
 
 ## Use the layout
 
-Use `layout = machi.layout.create(name, editor)` to instantiate the layout with an editor object (see below on creating the editor).
+Use `layout = machi.layout.create(name, editor)` to instantiate the layout with an editor object.
+`machi.default_editor` can be used, or see below on creating editors.
 You can also create multiple layouts with different names and share the same editor.
 The editor will restore the last setups of the layouts based on their names.
+The layout will be independent on different tags.
