- Instead of hoping that the currently associated AP will show up as
the first AP in the list of scan results, fetch the BSSID of the
currently associated AP and use that to fetch station info for the
AP. This provides more frequently updated signal strength
information than scan results and reliably provides information when
multiple APs are in range.
- Do not treat the RSSI value as a raw signal value in dBm. Instead, use
the same formula as ifconfig(8) to compute a signal value.
- Do not report the beacon interval value as a signal quality level.

On laptops one may want to have all interfaces up in order to let network
prioritization manage switching between wired and wireless connection. In such
cases lack of IP address is a useful hint about currently used interface, and
color-coding makes it stand out more.

This makes the value for %signal match ifconfig(8) in all cases.

From here on, we’ll use clang-format to automatically format the source.
This has worked well in i3, so we are introducing it for i3status.

In many public WiFis, the 2.4 GHz wireless band is slow due to
congestion, while there is still plenty of bandwidth available on the
5 GHz area. So when debugging wireless issues it's convenient to have
i3status display the frequency of the access point that the interface is
connected to.
This patch adds support for the %frequency tag for wireless interfaces,
so for example:
format_up = "WLAN: %essid - %quality / %frequency"
would result in:
"WLAN: eduroam - 074% / 2.4 GHz"

No statistics are displayed with ad-hoc networks since none are available.

This hardcodes all the JSON parts. Strings are not properly escaped currently.
The best/easiest way to fix this is by actually using libyajl.

We finally switched to libconfuse for a configuration file format
which does not require much work for the programmer nor for the user.
Plus, it avoids the Not-Invented-Here syndrome of yet another config
file format.
Furthermore, as a consequence of providing format strings for every
"module" (ipv6, wireless, …), we directly print the output and thus
we needed to drop support for wmii. This allowed us to get rid of
quite some complexity.
Documentation about the new configuration file and options will
follow. This commit is the beginning of what will be i3status v2.0.
