Since the configparser library by default parses keys case insensitive
(all lowercase), certain mappings, especially in the pulseaudio modules,
could fail ("internal" pulseaudio device names are matched against
entries in the configuration).

add a scrolling module that can be used to scroll the whole bar to an
arbitrary number of widgets.
its parameter is "width", which determines the number of widgets to
display.
see #921
* initialize first line of output earlier (before modules are
initialized, so that module/thread output cannot interfere)
* make sure that update and draw are protected against concurrent access
This reverts commit 72a888748e, reversing
changes made to d57ef9364a.
This merge causes really high CPU load if using both pasink and
pasource, because those two modules trigger each other, and there's not
a terrible lot I can do about that, unfortunately.

initialized, so that module/thread output cannot interfere)
* make sure that update and draw are protected against concurrent access
according to research (Jakob Nielsen '93), roughly 0.1s is what is
required for the user to feel "instantaneous".
based on this, rate-limit updates to only once per ~0.03s (0.1 felt
really laggy for me, so let's be conservative)
When registering an event (especially mouse events), if the parameter
is a valid method in the Module, execute that with the event as
parameter.
Add this in the core.spacer module as an example.

Simplify the previous autohide functionality by adding a flag that lets
a module (e.g. progress) indicate that the current state should be
"revealed" (not auto-hidden).
This vastly simplifies the implementation.
see #835
Add a new "hide-able" state "mayhide" that can be utilized by modules
without warning state. This state indicates that the module *may* be
hidden by autohide, if the user configures it like this.
see #835
Add a new set of parameters to allow modules to be customly minimized.
It works like this: If a module has the parameter "minimize" set to a
true value, it will *not* use the built-in minimizer, and instead look
for "minimized" parameters (e.g. if date has the "format" parameter, it
would look for "minimized.format" when in minimized state). This allows
the user to have different parametrization for different states.
Also, using the "start-minimized" parameter allows for modules to start
minimized.
Note: This is hinging off the *module*, not the *widget* (the current,
hard-coded hiding is per-widget). This means that modules using this
method will only show a single widget - the first one - when in
minimized state. The module author has to account for that.
see #791
to trigger an update of a module (without actually triggering a mouse
interaction), use the special event "update":
bumblebee-ctl -m <module> -b update
see #784
if a module fails to load, explicitly log errors for core and contrib in
the error log, but be a bit less verbose (and less confusing) in the
module error message itself.
fixes#747
c77f3aa accidentially broke "sparse" updates (i.e. updates that do not
trigger during each update interval).
Introduce a new update parameter, "force", to model the use case "update
everything on SIGUSR1".
fixes#692
make sure that for a given event (widget/object/module, whatever), only
a *single* input event per button can be registered at one time.
the problem otherwise is with modules that re-register their widgets
with the same IDs (cmus, spotify, etc.): Each time the widget is
re-created (each intervall, typically), it re-registers an input event,
creating an always longer list of callbacks being executed when the
button is clicked (not speaking of the memory leak this introduces).
fixes#668
Make sure that iconsets used as part of a theme do *not* override
anything already existing inside the theme.
Only iconsets that are manually specified can override settings in the
theme now (because those, you typically specify on the CLI).
TODO: Write unit test for this
fixes#666
make it possible to toggle the display state of a widget between
"displayed" and "minimized" also for modules that re-create their
widgets during each iteration.
see #661
