Added a new, standalone, battery widget.

The widget reads /proc/acpi/battery/*/{info,state} and doesn't require
an external utility like 'acpi' or 'acpitool'. It returns state,
charge and remaining time information, just like the old bat (now
batat) widget. Using /sys/class/power_supply we would need to open
much more file descriptors so we use /proc for now.
