[wayland] Use a dummy window for QtWayland's popup window handling

QtWayland only creates popup windows if they have a parent QWindow or
if there is any window which had input. It's not enough to fake an
enter, it needs to be either a pointer button press or key press.

As KWin's useraction menu doesn't have a parent and we most likely
never send a pointer press to any QWindow it doesn't get shown. To
circumvent this we create a dummy window and fake a button press/release
on the window. After that Qt is tricked into believing there's a parent
window and shows the popup.

Faking the input is only done with at least Qt 5.5 as QtWayland crashes
on pointer event without a keymap being installed. As KWin does not yet
send keymaps we better disable the dangerous code path. With Qt 5.5 the
crash condition is fixed.
