awesome-client: send command line arguments to awesome (#1058)

Browse source 
In some languages, invoking commands with command-line arguments is
significantly simpler than setting up pipes for writing to a command's
standard input.

This adds an additional way for sending commands through awesome-client;
so all of these will be equivalent:

  $ awesome-client 'awesome.restart()'
  $ echo 'awesome.restart()' | awesome-client
  $ awesome-client <<<'awesome.restart()'
  $ awesome-client
  awesome# awesome.restart()
  awesome# ^D
  $

Note that this sends each command line argument as a separate message
over dbus.
