527489e0de [core/themes] Add "cycling" support
Allow a theme to define a "cycle" of attributes that are cycled through
on a widget-per-widget basis (e.g. for alternating the widget
background). These cycles take precedence over the default values, but
can be overridden by module-specific theme instructions.

module test so that it now generically iterates all available modules
and tests their widgets.

2fa8d7b778 [core/themes] Add module-specific themes
Allow module-specific theme information to overload "default"
configuration. I.e. it is now possible to have specific prefix or
postfix configurations for different modules. The module name is derived
for each widget from the module (__module__) from which it was
instantiated.

562fd85ca2 [core/theme] Add support for icon themes
Allow sub-themes ("iconsets") to be merged into the "main" theme. That
way, effectively, it's possible to define colors and icons in separate
JSON files.

f645203579 [core] Widget creation/update overhaul
Until now, widgets were re-created during each iteration. For multiple,
reasons, using static widget objects is much easier, so instead of
creating new widgets continuously, modules now create the widgets during
instantiation and get the list of widgets passed as parameter whenever
an update occurs. During the update, they can still manipulate the
widget list by removing and adding elements as needed.

Advantages:
* Less memory fragmentation (fewer (de)allocations)
* Easier event management (widgets now have static IDs)
* Easier module code (widget contents can simply be the result of a
  callback)

712d958e18 [core/output] Add widget drawing

widgets using the widgets() method which is then forwarded to the draw()
method of the configured output.
