 There should be a way to check if particular sidebar is in use, because a
 theme developer might want to change the markup in the presence of a
 sidebar actually being used.

 My patch adds a "is_active_sidebar" function, to which one can pass a
 sidebar name, id, or number to return a boolean value reflecting whether
 that sidebar is actually in use.
