There is no key combination for "toggle sticky" in the default config. At least going to https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/blob/master/awesomerc.lua and searching for sticky only finds the titlebar icon entry thingie.
To build your own, you could copy the key binding for ontop and change it accordingly:
https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/blob/9b1246af3da71910e84cd446e1b973b384ce0fac/awesomerc.lua#L432-L433
awful.key({ modkey, }, "t", function (c) c.ontop = not c.ontop end,
{description = "toggle keep on top", group = "client"}),
becomes...
awful.key({ modkey, }, "t", function (c) c.sticky = not c.sticky end,
{description = "toggle sticky", group = "client"}),
(Of course, mod4+t is already taken, so you have to pick something else)
