The build option got introduced for Plasma Active back in a time
when we did not properly aim for convergence. In a Plasma 5 world
we want to have only one shell and one window manager which adjust
itself. This means we don't want a differently compiled kwin for
plasma active, but the same one. Thus the build option doesn't
make much sense any more. A KWin for touch interface needs to support
screenedges for the case that mouse is plugged in.

NOTE: this is not working completely yet, lots of code is still ifdefed
other parts are still broken.
The main difference for the new decoration API is that it is neither
QWidget nor QWindow based. It's just a QObject which processes input
events and has a paint method to render the decoration. This means all
the workarounds for the QWidget interception are removed. Also the paint
redirector is removed. Instead each compositor has now its own renderer
which can be optimized for the specific case. E.g. the OpenGL compositor
renders to a scratch image which gets copied into the combined texture,
the XRender compositor copies into the XPixmaps.
Input events are also changed. The events are composed into QMouseEvents
and passed through the decoration, which might accept them. If they are
not accpted we assume that it's a press on the decoration area allowing
us to resize/move the window. Input events are not completely working
yet, e.g. wheel events are not yet processed and double click on deco
is not yet working.
Overall KDecoration2 is way more stateful and KWin core needs more
adjustments for it. E.g. borders are allowed to be disabled at any time.

problem is that toggleOnActivity interprets "all" as "none" and
subsequent setting of any activity will move the window to that
activity *only* - what's not suggested by the GUI

As can be seen in [1] the patches to KWin were in CVS HEAD before the
protocol got standardized and it never got any adoption. It's neither in
the NETWM spec, nor implemented in Qt4 nor in Qt5. KWin did not even add
the protocol to the NET::Supported property.
Thus it doesn't make much sense to keep a protocol which nobody speaks.
Still the code around the protocol is kept and also the names are kept.
Only difference is that Client::takeActivity got removed and the code
moved to the only calling place in Workspace. Motivated by that change
the enum defined in utils.h is moved into Workspace, it's turned into
a proper QFlags class and used as a type in the method argument instead
of a generic long.

Scripting has proved it's point of being useful so it's time to turn it
into a mandatory part of KWin.
Also I start to use features provided by Scripting in more and more

The ActionCollection was only used for two features:
* setting the object name
* finding the action for retrieving it's shortcut
This can also be achieved by just setting the object name and searching
for the children of the Workspace singleton.
The functionality from KActionCollection is not used at all. It's
just for setting the object name. By not using the ActionCollection
to create the QAction and connecting the slot, it's also possible to
use the new compile time checked connect syntax.
When the menu opens we update the QPalette to the one used by the
Client and thus providing a more common look and feel if the window
specified a custom color scheme.
There used to be an own action collection in KDE 3 times for the
block global shortcuts shortcut. But the code ws disabled and by
that I didn't see it during removing the global shortcuts blocking.
And it explains why the global shortcut blocking didn't work.
Method replaces the logic of the macros. The macros are still there
to not need to change all the code. Major difference is that the new
method uses the compile time checked connect syntax.
In case that the window operation results in destroying the window
decoration we need to have the menu closed before the deco gets
destroyed. Otherwise Qt crashes.
* Ported away from KAction
* starting the dialog is moved into a thread
Currently this code is still rather crashy as destroying the deco
seems to somehow crash KWin in the interaction.
* "" needs to be wrapped in QStringLiteral
* QString::fromUtf8 needed for const char* and QByteArray
* QByteArray::constData() needed to get to the const char*
Instead of wrapping for exactly one case let's just use the proper
function calls and get rid of all those methods marked as "remove KDE4"
and "backwards compatibility".

Following the approaches of other split out functionality Screens is a
singleton class created by Workspace.
The class takes over the responsibility for:
* screenChanged signal delayed by timer
* number of screens
* geometry of given screen
* active screen
* config option for active screen follows mouse
The class contains a small abstraction layer and has a concrete subclass
wrapping around QDesktopWidget, but the idea is to go more low level and
interact with XRandR directly to get more detailed information.
All over KWin the usage from QDesktopWidget is ported over to the new
Screens class.

All activities related code moves into new singleton class Activities.
This class gets only included into the build if the build option is
enabled which means there are less ifdefs all over the code and it also
handles better the moc doesn't like ifdef case.
The class holds the list of open and all activites, the current and the
previous activity and the KActivities::Controller. It also emits the
signals for any activities related changes.
Workspace still contains some activities related code. That is the
adjustment on change of current activity. Nevertheless the code looks
much cleaner now and does not contain the confusing naming conflict with
takeActivity() which existed before.
In all the places where Activities got used the code got adjusted and
quite often the ifdef got added with a fallback for the disabled case.

prevent the popup from autoclosing.

The code is rewritten in a way to replace the local event loop with event
filtering done in the normal way through events.cpp. Therefore instead of
creating a KillWindow whenever it's needed, there is one available in
Workspace which will be reused on next invocation.
The responsible events are passed from events.cpp to KillWindow for
processing.
In order to port the keycode to symbol to XCB, KWin now finds
xcb_keysyms and links it.
To get the right cursor KWin now links the XCursor library which is
unfortunatelly an XLib based library, but there seems to be no XCB
replacement.

The ownership for virtual desktops is moved from Workspace into a new
VirtualDesktopManager. The manager is responsible for providing the count
of virtual desktops and keeping track of the currently used virtual
desktop.
All methods related to moving between desktops are also moved from
Workspace to the new manager, though all methods related to Clients on
Virtual Desktops remain in Workspace for the time being. This is to have
the new manager as independent from KWin core as possible.
An rather important change for the handling of virtual desktops is that
the count and the id of a desktop is now an unsinged integer instead of
an integer. The reason for that is that we cannot have a negative count
of desktops as well as it is not possible to be on a desktop with a
negative identifier.
In that regard it is important to remember that a Client can be on a
desktop with a negative identifier. The special value for a Client being
on all desktops is handled by using -1 as a desktop. For the time being
this is not adjusted but instead of comparing the virtual desktop ids one
should prefer to use the convenient methods like isOnDesktop and
isOnAllDesktops. This would allow in future to internally change the
representation for on all desktops.
The Client is still needed as the invoked action might be delayed by one
event cycle to work around a crash if the operation causes the deco to
close.

A script can register a callback through registerUserActionsMenu to be
informed when the UserActionsMenu is about to be shown. This menu calls
the Scripting component to gather actions to add to a Scripts submenu.
The Scripting component now asks all scripts for the actions, which will
invoke the registered callbacks with the Client for which the menu is to
be shown as argument.
The callback is supposed to return a JSON structure describing how the
menu should look like. The returned object can either be a menu item or
a complete menu. If multiple menu items or menus are supposed to be added
by the script it should just register multiple callbacks.
The structure for an item looks like the following:
{
text: "My caption",
checkable: true,
checked: false,
triggered: function (action) {
print("The triggered action as parameter");
}
}
The structure for a complete menu looks quite similar:
{
text: "My menu caption",
items: [
{...}, {...} // items as described above
]
}
The C++ part of the script parses the returned object and generates
either QAction or QMenu from it. All objects become children of the
scripts QMenu provided by the UserActionsMenu.
Before the menu is shown again the existing menu is deleted to ensure
that no outdated values from no longer existing scripts are around. This
means the scripts are queried each time the menu is shown.

Two new interfaces are introduced:
* org.kde.kwin.Compositing
* org.kde.kwin.Effects
The Compositing interface is generated from scriptable elements on the
KWin::Compositor class and the Compositor is exported as /Compositor.
It provides the general Compositing related D-Bus methods like whether
the compositor is active and toggling and so on.
The Effects interface is generated from scriptable elements on the
KWin::EffectsHandlerImpl class and the instance is exported as /Effects.
It provides all the effects related D-Bus methods like loading an effect
or the list of all effects.
This removes the need to have all these methods provided on the global
org.kde.KWin interface. For backwards compatibility they are kept, but
no longer provided by the Workspace class. Instead a new DBusInterface
is generated which wrapps the calls and delegates it to one of our three
related Singleton objects:
* Workspace
* Compositor
* EffectsHandlerImpl
the geometry setting needs to happen out of recursion,
has to be smarter for unmaximizing and also no real
place in TabGroup - the client is no longer tabbed thus
it's not the groups task to manage it's geometry.

All methods and variables related to the User Actions Menu
(rmb window deco, Alt+F3) is moved out of the Workspace class
into an own UserActionsMenu class.
The class needs only a very small public interface containing
methods to show the menu for a Client, closing the menu and
discarding the menu. Everything else is actually private to the
implementation which is one of the reasons why it makes sense
to split the functionality out of the Workspace class.
As a result the methods and variables have more sane names and
the variable names are standardized.

As discussed on the mailinglist [1] the tiling support is
removed from KWin. The main reasons for this step are:
* it is unmaintained
* it is a mode not used by any of the core KWin team
* original developer said at Akademy 2012 that he is not
interested in picking up the work again
* tiling has quite some bugs, e.g. multi screen not supported
* is conflicting with other concepts in KWin, e.g. activities
There is ongoing work to get tiling supported through a KWin
script, which is a preferred way as it does not influence the
existing C++ code base.
