IMPORTANT:

- `volume` now uses 🔉 and 🔈 instead of ♫ and ♩ to show mute state.
  This BREAKS backward compatibility if users substitute custom symbols
  from these default.

Added:

- `spawn` as a fallback for `awful.spawn` in case Vicious is used as
  a stand-alone library. This wrapper, however, does NOT provide the facilities
  to asynchronously spawn new processes. It also lacks a few features such as
  parsing `stderr` and returning PID.
- `helpers.setasyncall` to avoid writing redundant workers for asynchronous
  widget types. Note that these workers are only needed in case Vicious is used
  as a stand-alone library.

Fixed:

- [volume,gmail,battery(FreeBSD)] Deprecate `io.popen`
- [mpd] Lua 5.3 compatibility (for real this time); also correct a typo
- [pkg,weather,contrib/btc] Allow function call without Awesome
- [pkg] Use more updated front-ends for Debian/Ubuntu (apt) and Fedora (dnf)
