In tabbed mode, the available width (say 1280) is divided by the amount
of child containers (say 3). Before this commit, we just truncated the
result and would end up with 426 + 426 + 426 = 1278 pixels that we
render to. Now we render a bit too much, but that’ll at least not give
us graphics corruption on any side :).

When you have a tabbed container which has had more than one container
but currently has precisely one container, there was a bit of flickering
when switching workspaces occasionally. This commit fixes it by properly
setting the height of the deco_rect (and thus the X11 window) to not
make the old window contents show up for a minimum period of time.

With this commit, the "default" layout is replaced by the splith and
splitv layouts. splith is equivalent to default with orientation
horizontal and splitv is equivalent to default with orientation
vertical.
The "split h" and "split v" commands continue to work as before, they
split the current container and you will end up in a split container
with layout splith (after "split h") or splitv (after "split v").
To change a splith container into a splitv container, use either "layout
splitv" or "layout toggle split". The latter command is used in the
default config as mod+l (previously "layout default"). In case you have
"layout default" in your config file, it is recommended to just replace
it by "layout toggle split", which will work as "layout default" did
before when pressing it once, but toggle between horizontal/vertical
when pressing it repeatedly.
The rationale behind this commit is that it’s cleaner to have all
parameters that influence how windows are rendered in the layout itself
rather than having a special parameter in combination with only one
layout. This enables us to change existing split containers in all cases
without breaking existing features (see ticket #464). Also, users should
feel more confident about whether they are actually splitting or just
changing an existing split container now.
As a nice side-effect, this commit brings back the "layout toggle"
feature we once had in i3 version 3 (see the userguide).
AFAIK, it is safe to use in-place restart to upgrade into versions
after this commit (switching to an older version will break your layout,
though).

Some of them are useless nowadays, others very unlikely to be a problem.
Those which might still be interesting somewhen in the future are just
commented out.
Better to crash with an assertion than to get into an infinite loop.
We cold work around this, but there's a bug here and it's not a
rounding bug, so it's better not to conceal it.
