The main purpose of this commit is to ensure that exec callbacks are registered at startup (or config reload), so that they have a chance to run on the first update interval. Much of the code in exec.cc got consolidated, making it easier to follow. Several checks for NULL pointers should eliminate some obscure segfaults I noticed, as well. During the refactoring, I implemented height and width arguments for execbar and execgauge. The functionality was already there, but wasn't being used. All this is accompanied by updates to the man page and plenty of code comments.
