polybar: Remove border width and window gap by default

Realistically, you use a window manager to take up all the available
space on a screen. Borders and gaps are counter-intuitive in this
regard.

Since polybar has a module that shows the title of the focused window,
using a border width even in gapless mode is no longer necessary. This
also works conveniently well with bspwm's monocle desktop layout, which
will also inherit the no-border no-gaps methodology and take up all the
available screen space.
