The following commit:
6a75ea9 Show IP address when address has a label
introduced a way to show the IP address of an interface when a label is
associated to the IP.
When a label is associated to an IP, the structure returned by
getifaddrs() has the label concatenated to the interface name in the
.ifa_name field as in the following example:
struct ifaddrs ifaddr = {
.ifa_name = "eth0:mylabel",
};
As a consequence, using a strict comparison between the interface name
and the .ifa_name field yields a falsy result. However, checking if the
.ifa_name starts with the interface name (e.g. eth0) does not work
either because other network interfaces can have a name which starts
with eth0.
This commit solves the issue by stripping out the optional label from
the .ifa_name field before making a strict comparison with the interface
name.

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.
