Allow borders

[ghost]

For ascetics it would be nice if lemonbar allowed borders to fit in with the window borders on a wm.

note that you can have an underline/overline, which can be used to get a border look.

I use the following script to make a border around my the main lemonbar instance, by launching another lemonbar instance before it so it is hidden below. Example.

@Wildefyr I will note that what @dark-yux ended up doing was creating a fork that added borders -- posted on /r/unixporn a bit ago.

Since we have underlines and overlines it might make sense to have also vert(ical)lines (that could be just considered as a very thin slant...I think the slant idea has some potential if done properly and if it's flexible enough)

FYI, this doesn't work if you're using alignment.

there are workaround for vertical line using offset tag %{O $underlineWidth} combined with background enclosing em
it is messy but it works
%{B$borderColor}%{O$borderWidth}%{B-}

As dirty as the workaround looks, it actually works as intended and somehow feels more precise than a "regular" border
