Among the first steps to produce better i18n support is to test the created
translations adhoc without running "make install". To achieve this, fluxbox
now honors several environment variables:
- NLSPATH: fluxbox won't create the absolute path to the catalog and thus
catopen() is free to use NLSPATH as described in the manpage. Example
given: "/tmp/%N" will pick "/tmp/fluxbox.cat". %N refers to FLUXBOX_CATFILE.
- FLUXBOX_CATFILE: By setting FLUXBOX_CATFILE the users can make fluxbox to
use a different name for the catalog file. Default: "fluxbox.cat"
- FLUXBOX_CATDIR: Per default fluxbox tries to find FLUXBOX_CATFILE at several
places. Setting this environment variable allows to point fluxbox to a
different search path for the catalog files.
Then, fluxbox tries catopen() first without changing the deduced catalog file
name. After that it applies some heuristics to get a good catalog file name.

Sometimes fluxbox is used as a component of a desktop environment (
e.g., the "Lumina Desktop"). It's easier and more stable for this kind
of "users" to disable the toolbar or the slit alltogether. Why not
configure these features out? Because then they would need 2 installations
of fluxbox: One without the slit and the toolbar (and perhaps other
components) and one with them.
This implements feature request #314, at least partially.
This commit also looks bigger than it actually is: I refactored and cleaned
up classes Fluxbox and BScreen.

This commit fixes primarily a race condition that occurs when xinit(1) shuts
down: by not acting properly fluxbox gets caught in an infinite loop. It
caused bug #1100.
xinit(1) sends a SIGHUP signal to all processes. fluxbox tries to shutdown
itself properly by shutting down workspaces and screens. While doing that, the
Xserver might be gone already. Additionally, fluxbox used to restart() itself
on SIGHUP, which is clearly not the right thing to do when xinit(1) is about
to end the session.
So, fluxbox does this:
* handling SIGHUP now shuts down fluxbox without clearing workspaces and
screens.
* A 2 second alarm() is triggered in Fluxbox::shutdown() as a last resort
* XSetIOErrorHandler() is used to recognize the disconnect from the xserver.
* SIGUSR1 is for restarting fluxbox, SIGUSR2 for reloading the config
* FbTk/SignalHandler.cc/hh is gone; this unused abstraction served currently
no real purpose. Signal handling is now done in main.cc
* Unrelated to the issue itself src/main.cc was trimmed down quite a bit and
the code (responsible for handling the command line interface) was moved to
src/cli*
