Bug Description
On a fresh install of Byobu (5.77) from trusty, pressing F5 will throw errors until ~/.byobu/
[Impact]
* Byobu users of the byobu-tmux backend will sometimes press F5 to refresh their status, keybindings, or configurations. Users of the default Byobu package in tmux will receive a very annoying error message about a missing windows.tmux file.
[Test Case]
* From a new or fresh Trusty installation (desktop or server), drop to a command line, and run 'byobu-tmux'. Press F5. You'll see an error message about windows.tmux missing.
* Upgrade to the package in trusty-proposed, launch a new byobu-tmux session, and press F5. It should work just fine now.
[Regression Potential]
* The fix is to simply create the file (like the rest of the byobu configuration files) at launch time at missing, using touch. There is virtually zero regression potential.
[Other Info]
* None
