DynamicLog claims to configure ManageDocks

[geekosaur]

The statusBar combinator, and therefore dzen and xmobar, configure avoidStruts but not the other necessary hooks. This mostly worked before 0.12, but from 0.12 on its avoidStruts is ineffective without the other dock hooks. See #147.

The quick fix is probably to make it use docks. I am not sure that's a great idea in the case that the user's config already uses docks or individual hooks; duplicating hooks isn't a very good idea, especially docksStartupHook which has no choice but to enumerate all windows with XQueryTree in order to preload the strut cache.

Come to think of it, we also should have a docksOn whioch uses avoidStrutsOn.

statusBar and variants have been using docks for quite some time, closing this.

That, and #406 restored the pre-0.12 behaviour of not requiring the startup hook.
