Emmanuel Lepage Vallee 3167affe99 overlay: Re-write for the new widget system
**WARNING**: this break the API
menu.overlay -> menu.draw_overlay

The new "overlay" behave like underlay, but is on top

This commit also add underlay/overlay "align" option and document
the feature properly.

Emmanuel Lepage Vallee 6e85a46093 Fix more issues for 3.6. The arrow_prefix now work using a new hack
The "hack" force the full redraw of the menu. This is what 3.5 did
anyway, but of course is not correct. The new layout system allow
widgets to have a larger fit and it should cascade by itself. This
is not yet used by radical.

This commit also fix some mistake made during the initial port.

My whole config now load mostly correctly. Some 3.5 era bugs even
fixed themselves! It is still slower for some reasons and have many
errors left, but it "look" ok.

Emmanuel Lepage Vallee cf9bb87b36 Port to the new Awesome widget system
This commit fix most issues introduced by the new widget system. It
is not production ready and will require multiple commits to fix
individual issues.

The new widget system is better suited for modules like Radical than
the previous one. Over time, this breakage will probably end up being
a good thing. However, for now, expect multiple errors.

The changes:

 * The draw "wibox" argument is now a "context". "context.wibox" is
   the equivalent. This will allow passing the Radical structure to
   the draw method without storing it in the widgets.
 * "fit" now have a new required "context" argument for the DPI, this
   will allow removing the "default_height" variable Radical is using
   to scale the UI on HIDPI systems. This will allow size policies to
   be passed to the fit method
 * "draw" has been splitted into "draw", "draw_before_children",
   "draw_after_children" and "layout". This simplify the overlay
   system and will allow cleaner code
 * Drawing outside of the widget clip is no longer supported, this
   break multiple Radical item.style. This will allow better
   performance and less redraw once the new system issues have been
   fixed
