client order not preserved by view arrangements

Actually, I intended for these arranging methods to preserve the
relative (top-down) order of clients in a column. So ideally, you can
switch between arrangements and still have the same relative client
ordering.

I played around with arranging 10 terminals on an empty view:

• Going from tiling mode to grid mode, the top two clients in the
  second column are swapped. Repeating this again, the same
  transformation is applied and the order fixes itself.
• Going from tiling mode to diamond mode, the top two clients and the
  bottom client in the middle column are swapped. After repeating this
  four times, the same transformation is applied and the order fixes
  itself.

I'll try to fix this bug in Rumai itself. Thanks.

I looked at the unshift(), push(), and insert() methods in Area and they seem fine. The culprit might be the creation of a new column (moving a client from the right-most column to the right).

Fixed in version 3.1.1 (2009-11-16).
