András Mohari a0d5b744ab Allow min_width of a block in i3bar to be a string
With this change, min_width can either be an integer (as usual), or a
string. In the latter case, the width of the text given by min_width
determines the minimum width of the block. This way one does not have to
figure out a minimum width by trial and error, only to do it again every
time the font is changed.

Piotr S. Staszewski 3facbbca5c Add a new IPC event for changes on windows.
Added new event id (I3_IPC_EVENT_WINDOW) so that a an IPC client can
subscribe to events on windows. Added a basic window event that gets
triggered when a window gets successfully reparented. This new event
also dumps the container data, so that IPC clients can get the initial
window name. IPC clients wishing to see window events should subscribe
to 'window'.

Artem Shinkarov 5f05ca6b5d Separator color via config; separator width and on/off via ipc
This patch adds the following features:
1) Configure a color of the separator via config.  It is done like
   bar {
      colors {
         separator #000000
      }
   }
2) A block can have an integer entry "separator_block_width" which
   sets the width of the gap which would follow after the current block.

3) A block can have a boolean entry "separator" and if it is set
   to false, then the drawing of the separating line would be disabled.

are not necessary anywhere else because `focus' is always triggered when
changing ws.

Simon Elsbrock 28104a480c implement delayed urgency hint reset
If there is a client with an urgency hint on another workspace and
switching to this workspace would cause the urgency to be reset (by
moving the focusing to the client), delay the reset by some time. This
gives the user the chance to see it.

This commit adds the possibility to configure the urgency delay timer
duration using the 'force_display_urgency_hint' directive. Also,
documentation and a testcase was added to allow for automated checks of
the intended behavior.

chrysn e15e37f922 fixes #776
this implements both the "move container to workspace back_and_forth" command
and movements to the same workspace when auto_back_and_forth is set.

it includes documentation and test suite additions by michael.

it also simplifies the workspace_show_by_name function (making use of
workspace_get accepting NULL pointers).

Michael Stapelberg 78f5f2204d ipc: implement GET_VERSION to find out the i3 version
This is useful for third-party scripts which require certain features
and want to error out cleanly when they are run with an old i3 version.

Additionally, i3 --version might be different from what’s actually
running (an old version of the binary), so i3-msg -t get_version will be
the best way to figure out the i3 version you are actually running from
this commit on.

Michael Stapelberg de94f6da1a Introduce splith/splitv layouts, remove orientation
With this commit, the "default" layout is replaced by the splith and
splitv layouts. splith is equivalent to default with orientation
horizontal and splitv is equivalent to default with orientation
vertical.

The "split h" and "split v" commands continue to work as before, they
split the current container and you will end up in a split container
with layout splith (after "split h") or splitv (after "split v").

To change a splith container into a splitv container, use either "layout
splitv" or "layout toggle split". The latter command is used in the
default config as mod+l (previously "layout default"). In case you have
"layout default" in your config file, it is recommended to just replace
it by "layout toggle split", which will work as "layout default" did
before when pressing it once, but toggle between horizontal/vertical
when pressing it repeatedly.

The rationale behind this commit is that it’s cleaner to have all
parameters that influence how windows are rendered in the layout itself
rather than having a special parameter in combination with only one
layout. This enables us to change existing split containers in all cases
without breaking existing features (see ticket #464). Also, users should
feel more confident about whether they are actually splitting or just
changing an existing split container now.

As a nice side-effect, this commit brings back the "layout toggle"
feature we once had in i3 version 3 (see the userguide).

AFAIK, it is safe to use in-place restart to upgrade into versions
after this commit (switching to an older version will break your layout,
though).
