rc.lua: Use request::activate instead of client.focus.

For a long time, it was deemed overkill and made rc.lua less readable
without the documentation.

However it is now clear that it's handling of unfocusable clients and
general bypassing of both `awful.client.focus.filter` and
`awful.ewmh.activate` filters causes bugs. Fixing them individually
in each instance of `rc.lua` `client.focus = c` would add so much code
that all the clarity provided by not using request::activate would be
burried in boilerplate code.

Fix #2328
