Currently, we estimate the expected render time purely based on the
latency policy.
The problem with doing so is that the real render time might be larger,
this can result in frame drops.
In order to avoid frame drops, we need to take into account previous
render times while estimating the next render time. For now, we just
measure how long it takes to record rendering commands on the CPU.
In the future, we might want consider using OpenGL timer queries for
measuring the real render time, but for now, it's good enough.
At the moment, our frame scheduling infrastructure is still heavily
based on Xinerama-style rendering. Specifically, we assume that painting
is driven by a single timer, etc.
This change introduces a new type - RenderLoop. Its main purpose is to
drive compositing on a specific output, or in case of X11, on the
overlay window.
With RenderLoop, compositing is synchronized to vblank events. It
exposes the last and the next estimated presentation timestamp. The
expected presentation timestamp can be used by effects to ensure that
animations are synchronized with the upcoming vblank event.
On Wayland, every outputs has its own render loop. On X11, per screen
rendering is not possible, therefore the platform exposes the render
loop for the overlay window. Ideally, the Scene has to expose the
RenderLoop, but as the first step towards better compositing scheduling
it's good as is for the time being.
The RenderLoop tries to minimize the latency by delaying compositing as
close as possible to the next vblank event. One tricky thing about it is
that if compositing is too close to the next vblank event, animations
may become a little bit choppy. However, increasing the latency reduces
the choppiness.
Given that, there is no any "silver bullet" solution for the choppiness
issue, a new option has been added in the Compositing KCM to specify the
amount of latency. By default, it's "Medium," but if a user is not
satisfied with the upstream default, they can tweak it.
Plasma Mobile announced that they plan to drop support for Halium
devices, see the announcement blog post [1] for the reasons that led to
such a decision.
But just to summarize, here are some of the key points from the post:
* Some of our team members no longer have access to reference LG Nexus
5X device anymore
* After KDE Neon switched to using Ubuntu 20.04 we no longer are
updating the rootfs for halium devices
* After several important architecture changes in upstream KWin, the
hwcomposer backend might be broken and we have no way of verifying it
If the community members are interested in reviving the hwcomposer
backend,
* it pretty much needs rewrite/re-thinking given differences of hwc1
and hwc2 API for hwcomposer part of it, see also [2]
* It also needs removal of Android 5 based libhardware API as we don't
think code can be kept sane with 3 different levels of ifdefs
* This backend needs better way of fixing difference between
CAF/non-CAF devices then just recompiling with different headers,
maybe env vars?
* This backend does not support various things like transformation/
rotation etc, and is not exactly feature complete as the DRM backend

This change introduces a new component - ColorManager that is
responsible for color management stuff.
At the moment, it's very naive. It is useful only for updating gamma
ramps. But in the future, it will be extended with more CMS-related
features.
The ColorManager depends on lcms2 library. This is an optional
dependency. If lcms2 is not installed, the color manager won't be built.
This also fixes the issue where colord and nightcolor overwrite each
other's gamma ramps. With this change, the ColorManager will resolve the
conflict between two.
We need the multimedia component only to play preview videos in a KCM.
The find_package(Qt5Multimedia) is not needed because we already check
if Qt5Multimedia QML module is present using ecm_find_qmlmodule().
The main motivation behind this change is to work around constant build
failures caused by buggy config file of the Qt5::Multimedia component.
Set -DLIBINPUT_HAS_TOTEM per file rather than per target so that all
targets that build it have the define.
This particular file is also used by some tests and this fixes the
warning that this ifdef resolves at once for all targets.
One of the annoying things about EGL headers is that they include
platform headers by default, e.g. on X11, it's Xlib.h, etc.
The problem with Xlib.h is that it uses the define compiler directive to
declare constants and those constants have very generic names, e.g.
'None', which typically conflict with enums, etc.
In order to work around bad things coming from Xlib.h, we include
fixx11.h file that contains some workarounds to redefine some Xlib's
types.
There's a flag or rather two flags (EGL_NO_PLATFORM_SPECIFIC_TYPES and
EGL_NO_X11) that are cross-vendor and they can be used to prevent EGL
headers from including platform specific headers, such as Xlib.h [1]
The benefit of setting those two flags is that you can simply include
EGL/egl.h or epoxy/egl.h and the world won't explode due to Xlib.h
MESA_EGL_NO_X11_HEADERS is set to support older versions of Mesa.
[1] https://github.com/KhronosGroup/EGL-Registry/pull/111
Night Color adjusts the color temperature based on the current time in
your location. It's not a generic color correction module per se.
We need a central component that can be used by both night color and
colord integration to tweak gamma ramps and which will be able to
resolve conflicts between the two. The Night Color manager cannot be
such a thing because of its very specific usecase.
This change converts Night Color into a plugin to prepare some space for
such a component.
The tricky part is that the dbus api of Night Color has "ColorCorrect"
in its name. I'm afraid we cannot do that much about it without breaking
API compatibility.
krunner stuff doesn't really belong in kwin, it has nothing to do with
compositing or any other things that are the domain of compositors.
Given that, being as a plugin suits the krunner integration stuff best.
This change introduces basic colord integration in wayland session. It
is implemented as a binary plugin.
If an output is connected, the plugin will create the corresponding
colord device using the D-Bus API and start monitoring the device for
changes.
When a colord devices changes, the plugin will read the VCGT tag of the
current ICC color profile and apply it.
The scripting api is not suitable for implementing all features that
should not be implemented in libkwin. For example, the krunner
integration or screencasting are the things that don't belong to be
compiled right into kwin and yet we don't have any other choice.
This change introduces a quick and dirty plugin infrastructure that
can be used to implement things such as colord integration, krunner
integration, etc.
Without the KWindowSystem integration plugin, Wayland experience will be
negatively affected because windows created by kwin itself won't behave
as desired. Therefore it makes little sense to load this plugin at runtime.
On wayland, we know we're always going to load our internal QPA. Instead
of shipping a plugin and loading it dynamically we can use Qt static
plugins.
This should result in slightly faster load times, but also reduce the
number of moving pieces for kwin.
This also prevents anyone outside kwin loading our QPA which wouldn't
have made any sense and just crashed.
Currently, we use glFinish() to ensure that stream consumers don't see
corrupted or rather incomplete buffers. This is a serious issue because
glFinish() not only prevents the gpu from processing new GL commands,
but it also blocks the compositor.
This change addresses the blocking issue by using native fences. With
the proposed change, after finishing recording a frame, a fence is
inserted in the command stream. When the native fence is signaled, the
pending pipewire buffer will be enqueued.
If the EGL_ANDROID_native_fence_sync extension is not supported, we'll
fall back to using glFinish().
VirtualKeyboard class does not implement the relevant VirtualKeyboard
protocol but rather implements the InputMethod protcol and can in theory
be used by other input method like e.g. ibus.
Make class name consistent with what it does to avoid confusion in
future.
For now only rename of main class is done and dbus service is kept as-is
to provide retro-compatibility, when input method protocol is
implemented fully, we can think of what to do wrt the dbus interface
later when we fully implement zwp_input_method_unstable_v1 protocol.
This change introduces a shell integration class for input panel
surfaces. This effectively breaks the direct dependency between our
virtual keyboard component in kwin and the input_panel protocol,
which means that an input method server could use the layer-shell
protocol instead of the input_panel protocol.
The layer-shell protocol allows wayland clients to create surfaces that
can be used for building desktop environment components such as panels,
notifications, etc.
The support for the plasma-shell protocol will be dropped once plasma in
all its entirety is ported to the layer-shell protocol.
in XdgSurfaceClient setFrameGeometry is async,
so we can't rely on it having the final value immediately.
make setVirtualKeyboardGeometry a virtual.
in the implementation on setVirtualKeyboardGeometry
use requestedFrameGeometry() instead of frameGeometry()
When the Xwayland process crashes, we will print a warning message, but
that warning message won't show up anywhere in the terminal because the
current message severity for KWIN_XWL is way too high.
This patch lowers the message severity for the KWIN_XWL logging category
so warning messages can be seen from the terminal.
Currently in order to load an Xcursor theme, kwin uses libwayland api,
which looks really awkward because of the way how the compositor talks
to itself via the internal connection.
The main motivation behind this change is to limit the usage of kwayland
client api in kwin.
- The name of tty devices is different; put detection into
the CMakeLists and pass that as a define when building
virtual_terminal.cpp -- this means no ifdeffery for the path.
- The name of dri devices is different; FreeBSD just has one.
- On FreeBSD epoll.h if provided through a library (from a port, epoll-shim)
that emulates the Linux behavior. Make a CMake module for it to hide
differences in systems behind a module.
- Find epoll on FreeBSD and link to it
Now on FreeBSD, tries to compile virtual_terminal.cpp, which will fail because
that needs more patches.
There are several ways to handle unmapping of a wl_surface. The first
one is to destroy the associated AbstractClient instance. The second one
is to transition the AbstractClient in a special state.
The problem with the second approach is that it makes animations such as
fade out more difficult to handle since effects in kwin are geared more
towards the first approach (destroying AbstractClient).
Summary:
This change splits the XdgShellClient class to better match existing
abstractions in the xdg-shell protocol and fix a few issues related to
sending configure events.
In the new client classes, configure events are handled differently.
Instead of blocking configure events, we try to send them as late as
possible. Delaying configure events will let us merge changeMaximize()
for X11 clients and Wayland clients and it also fixes the bug where
we don't send the final configure event when user has finished resizing
a window.
Given that configure events are not sent immediately, XdgSurfaceClient
keeps the last requested frame geometry and the last requested client
geometry.
This patch doesn't intend to fix all issues in kwin's implementation of
the xdg-shell protocol. For example, we still handle surface unmapping
very poorly.
Test Plan: Tests pass.

In case Xwayland does not use multiple buffers, the currently attached
buffer is going to be destroyed if the frame window is resized. It may
render the previous and the current window pixmap invalid and thus result
in visual artifacts when an X11 client is being interactively resized.
In order to avoid the visual artifacts, this change disables support for
synchronized resizing for X11 clients if the version of Xwayland is less
than the version in which Xwayland started using multiple buffers, i.e.
1.21.

Currently kwin opens a second ICE connection to ksmserver in order to

This requires that kwin launches after ksmserver to have the connection

Practically this code is already ksmserver specific as it relies on some
custom code that sends the first saveState request to kwin first.
Instead we can replace it with a bespoke IPC over DBus and siplify the
code both end. This will allow several other future enhancements that we
want with regards to handling the session state, as well as make an
effort platform agnostic session management, as well as cleaning up some
complex code.
Ksmserver calls into kwin, rather than having kwin watch ksmserver state
to allow us make sure it's race free.

Summary:
Currently code base of kwin can be viewed as two pieces. One is very
ancient, and the other one is more modern, which uses new C++ features.
The main problem with the ancient code is that it was written before
C++11 era. So, no override or final keywords, lambdas, etc.
Quite recently, KDE compiler settings were changed to show a warning if
a virtual method has missing override keyword. As you might have already
guessed, this fired back at us because of that ancient code. We had
about 500 new compiler warnings.
A "solution" was proposed to that problem - disable -Wno-suggest-override
and the other similar warning for clang. It's hard to call a solution
because those warnings are disabled not only for the old code, but also
for new. This is not what we want!
The main argument for not actually fixing the problem was that git
history will be screwed as well because of human factor. While good git
history is a very important thing, we should not go crazy about it and
block every change that somehow alters git history. git blame allows to
specify starting revision for a reason.
The other argument (human factor) can be easily solved by using tools
such as clang-tidy. clang-tidy is a clang-based linter for C++. It can
be used for various things, e.g. fixing coding style(e.g. add missing
braces to if statements, readability-braces-around-statements check),
or in our case add missing override keywords.

Summary:
This is the initial implementation of a DRM backend based on the EGLDevice,
EGLOutput, and EGLStream extensions, supporting NVIDIA graphics hardware using
their proprietary driver. The new backend will be used if the environment
variable KWIN_DRM_USE_EGL_STREAMS is set. On initialization, it will attempt to
create an EGLDevice based on the DRM device currently in use and create
EGLOutputs and EGLStreams for any attached displays. These are used to control
presentation of the final composited frame. Additionally, it will register the
wl_eglstream_controller Wayland interface so that native EGL windows created by
clients can be attached to an EGLStream allowing buffer contents to be shared
with the compositor as a GL texture.
At this time there are two known bugs in the NVIDIA driver's EGL implementation
affecting desktop functionality. The first can result in tooltip windows drawn
by plasmashell to contain incorrect contents. The second prevents KWayland from
being able to query the format of EGLStream-backed buffers which interferes
with the blur effect. Fixes for both of these are currently in development and
should appear in an upcoming NVIDIA driver release.
Additionally, hardware cursors are currently not supported with this backend.
Enabling them causes the desktop to intermittently hang for several seconds.
This is also likely a bug in the NVIDIA DRM-KMS implementation but the root
cause is still under investigation.
Test Plan:
On a system with an NVIDIA graphics card running a recent release of their
proprietary driver
* Ensure the nvidia_drm kernel module is loaded with the option "modeset=1"
("# cat /sys/module/nvidia_drm/parameters/modeset" should print "Y")
* Ensure EGL external platform support is installed
https://github.com/NVIDIA/eglexternalplatform
* Ensure KWin was build with the CMake option
KWIN_BUILD_EGL_STREAM_BACKEND=ON (this is the default)
* Start a plasma wayland session with the environment variable
KWIN_DRM_USE_EGL_STREAMS set
* Ensure output from KWin OpenGL initialization indicates the NVIDIA EGL
driver is in use (as opposed to Mesa / llvmpipe).
* Desktop should be fully functional and perform smoothly.

Summary:
Most of the functionality which is special to internal clients is moved
from ShellClient to InternalClient. As KWin's qpa is still bound to the
Wayland protocol InternalClient inherits from ShellClient. Due to that
some aspects in ShellClient are "weird". ShellClient still detects
whether it's an internal client and uses the variable m_internal to
capture the state. This is required as we cannot use the isInternal
method. Most of m_internal usage is in init which is called from
constructor of ShellClient. Thus it's not possible to call into virtual
methods of InternalClient.
Also some of the code is duplicated and some methods are temporarily
marked as virtual.
The next step will be to remove ShmBuffer for internal windows which
should decouple the two implementations further with the long term goal
of having InternalClient inherit AbstractClient directly.

Run nested KWin, triggered outline (OpenGL case) and debug console (shm case).

Summary:
Building upon the generic X Selection support this patch establishes another
selection class representing the XDND selection and provides interfaces
to communicate drags originating from Xwayland windows to the Wayland
server KWin and drags originating from Wayland native drags to Xwayland.
For Wayland native drags KWin will claim the XDND selection as owner and
will simply translate all relevant events to the XDND protocol and receive
alike messages by X clients.
When an X client claims the XDND selection KWin is notified via the X protocol
and it decides if it allows the X drag to transcend into the Wayland protocol.
If this is the case the mouse position is tracked and on entering a Wayland
native window a proxy X Window is mapped to the top of the window stack. This
proxy window acts as a drag destination for the drag origin window and again
X messages will be translated into respective Wayland protocol calls. If the
cursor leaves the Wayland window geometry before a drop is registered, the
proxy window is unmapped, what triggers a subsequent drag leave event.
In both directions the necessary core integration is minimal. There is a single
call to be done in the drag and drop event filter through the Xwayland
interface class.
From my tests this patch facilitates drags between any Qt/KDE apps. What needs
extra care are the browsers, which use target formats, that are not directly
compatible with the Wayland protocol's MIME representation. For Chromium an
additional integration step must be done in order to provide it with a net

Summary:
In this patch an infrastructure is created to represent generic X selections
in a Wayland session and use them for data transfers between Xwayland windows
and Wayland native clients.
The central manager is the DataBridge class, in which Selection objects can be
created. This is hard-coded and such a Selection object persists until the end
of the session, so no arbitrary selections can be created on the fly. For now
the X Clipboard selection is supported, whose corresponding mechanism in the
Wayland protocol is just called Selection.
A Selection object listens for selection owner changes on the X side and for
similar events into the Wayland server interfaces. If a data provider is
available a selection source object is created by the Selection object. In case
data is requested on the other side, a data transfer is initialized by creating
a Transfer object. A Selection keeps track of all transfers and makes sure that
they are destroyed when they are finished or in case they idle because of
misbehaving clients.
The Clipboard class translates the X Clipboard via a proxy window. Selection
changes on the Wayland side are listened to through a new signal on the active
KWayland seat interface.
The previously used X clipboard syncer helper is disabled. The clipboard sync
autotest is changed to the new mechanism.

Summary:
The Xwayland code path is moved from ApplicationWayland to a dedicated class
Xwayland in a new top-level directory xwl.
This is a direct preparation step for generic support of Xwayland Selections.
On a longer timescale this should also allow us to further separate Wayland
native functionality from Xwayland to allow us at one point to build KWin's
Wayland binary optionally without X dependencies. Another long term goal, that
becomes possible through this separation is to recover from Xwayland crashes.

Summary:
This change adds support for the switch devices introduces with libinput
1.7 (lid) and 1.9 (tablet mode). So far it's not yet used internally in
KWin, but only exposed through the Device and Events.
As KWin currently only requires libinput 1.5 and we are rather late in
the release cycle the new functionality is ifdef'ed. The requirement
will be raised once master is 5.13. It is already available on
build.kde.org, but e.g. Neon only has 1.6.
The switch events are interesting as they report whether the lid is
closed (might be interesting for e.g. powerdevil) and whether a
convertible is in tablet mode (supported for e.g. Lenovo Yogas with
recent kernel). This can be used by KWin internally to enable/disable
the virtual keyboard. And can be exposed globally to switch to Plasma
Mobile shell in future.

** Automatic: The location and sun timings are determined automatically
(location data updates will be provided by the workspace)
** Location: The sun timings are determined by fixed location data
** Timings: The sun timings are set manually by the user
* Color temperature value changes are smoothly applied:
** Configuration changes, which lead to other current values are changed
in a quick way over a few seconds
** Changes on sunrise and sunset are applied slowly over the course of few
minutes till several hours depending on the configuration
* The current color value is set immediately at startup or after suspend
phases and VT switches. There is no flickering.
* All configuration is done via a DBus interface, changed values are tested
on correctness and applied atomically
* Self contained mechanism, speaks directly to the hardware by setting the
gamma ramps on the CRTC
* Currently working on DRM backend, extensible to other platform backends in
the future
* The code is written in a way to make the classes later easily extendable to

Summary:
The base idea behind this change is to keep the system responsive no
matter what other processes do. All input and rendering needs to go
through the windowing system, so keeping it responsive is important.
Currently KWin competes with all other processes for resources and this
can render the system unusable. Consider some processes running amok. In
this case the user might not be able to easily close the applications as
KWin does not get the cpu time to perform the input tasks requested by
the user.
Or in the case of playing a demanding game it is important that KWin
gets scheduled to forward the pointer input events. The user doesn't
want that the game (or another process) wins against the windowing
sytem.
The disadvantage is that KWin always wins against other processes with
real time scheduling. This could result in KWin running amok stalling
the system. On the other hand this is no change to the current situation
as if KWin runs amok the sytem is unusable.
The change uses libcap to set CAP_SYS_NICE on kwin_wayland executable.
KWin_wayland on start sets the scheduling policy to SCHED_RR with the
lowest possible priority. Thus any other SCHED_RR process will win
against KWin. So real time processes are not affected by this change!
After adjusting the scheduling (which requires CAP_SYS_NICE) KWin drops
this capability again.
Test Plan:
Verified that KWin adjusts the scheduler, that it is not passed
to child processes, that the capability gets dropped and not passed to
child processes.

This change is similar to D7232 and moves the scene_qpainter into a
dedicated plugin. Compared to the XRender case it's more complicated as
the platform plugins need to implement a platform specific backend.
The base implementation for this part used to be in scene_qpainter. As
the idea is to completly move it away from KWin core it would be point
less to still have the backend definition in KWin core, but it cannot
be in the scene plugin as otherwise all platforms need to link the
plugin.
To solve this a new platformsupport subdirectory is added which contains
the scene platform backend as a static library. For the OpenGL scene such
a static library will also be required.

Summary:
First step for loading the compositor Scenes through plugins. The general
idea is that we currently needlessly pull in all the Scenes although only
one will be used.
E.g. on X11 we pull in QPainter, although they are not compatible. On
Wayland we pull in XRender although they are not compatible.
Furthermore our current Scene creation strategy is not really fault
tolerant and can create situations where we don't get a compositor. E.g
on fbdev backend the default settings won't work as it does not support
OpenGL.
Long term I want to tackle those conceptional problems together:
we try to load all plugins supported by the current platform till we have
a scene which works. Thus on Wayland we don't end up in a situation where
we don't have a working compositor because the configuration is bad.
To make this possible the switch statement in the Scene needs to go and
needs to be replaced by a for loop iterating over all the available
scenes on the platform. If we go there it makes sense to replace it
directly with a plugin based approach.
So this is a change which tackles the problem by first introducing the
plugin loading. The xrender based scene (as it's the most simple one)
is moved into a plugin. It is first tried to find a scene plugin and only
if there is none the existing code is used.

KWin::updateXTime only delegates into the platform API where the method
is a no-op. The actual implementation is moved into the X11 standalone
platform as it uses QX11Info which is non functional except on the X11
standalone platform.
This change exposes a problem with timestamp handling: on Wayland the
X11 timestamp does not get updated at all, causing e.g. window sync not
work correctly (c.f. bug 374881). We cannot implement the updating in the
same way as QX11Info/Qt xcb platform does it as that would introduce a
blocking roundtrip to XWayland which is dangerous.
As a side-effect this change removes linking to Qt5::X11Extras in kwin

scale as can be seen in D6344. There are too many different context
attribute sets and with every addition we grow lots of copied code. The
chances to introduce errors in that code which is difficult to debug are
very high. As can be seen in the glx backend which defines major 1,
minor 2, but it should be major 2, minor 1.
This change reworks this code by creating a builder class which contains
only an abstract definition of what needs to be in the attributes.
E.g. the version, whether it's robust and so on.
Now we can just have a list of possible attributes in a well described
way:
auto builder;
builder.setVersion(3, 1);
builder.setRobust(true);
All possible builders are added to a list and operated on in a for loop
which tries to creat a context. Once it succeeded it breaks the list.
In addition a debug statement is added which prints out the set of
options which went into the context.
So far this is only done for EGL, GLX can follow once D6344 is merged.

Summary:
Normally the xclipboardsyncer should terminate because the socket
becomes unusable. But we have reports of it not really going down and
running amok.
In order to prevent such situations this change registers SIGTERM to be
sent to xclipboardsyncer when the parent process (that is kwin_wayland)
dies in whatever way. This ensures that xclipboardsyncer cannot become
an orphan.

Summary:
This change introduces the initial support for keyboard layout switching
policies like in the X11 session. This first change only adds support for
Global and Virtual Desktop policy. This means the current layout is
stored in context to the current virtual desktop. Whenever one changes
the virtual desktop the previous layout is restored. If the user has not
yet navigated to this virtual desktop a switch to default layout is
performed.
This is the first code interacting with the new Virtual Desktop API which
is not based on integer ids. To fully support this the API is slightly
extended.
Test Plan: Added test case

Summary:
So far KWin did not properly handle popup windows. That is when a popup
surface got created and a click outside the surface happened KWin did not
send out the popupDone Wayland event.
This change makes KWin aware of whether a surface is a popup and tracks
through a new PopupInputFilter whether there are popup windows. In case
there are popups the new filter waits for mouse press events and cancels
the popups if the press does not happen on any surface belonging to the
same client. To quote the relevant section of the Wayland documentation:
The popup grab continues until the window is destroyed or a mouse
button is pressed in any other client's window. A click in any of the
client's surfaces is reported as normal, however, clicks in other
clients' surfaces will be discarded and trigger the callback.
So far the support is still incomplete. Not yet implemented are:
* support xdg_shell popup windows
* verifying whether the popup is allowed to be a popup
* cancel the popup on more global interactions like screen lock or
kwin effect

Summary:
This change adds global touchpad swipe gestures to the
GlobalShortcutsManager and hooks up the swipe gestures as defined at the
Plasma Affenfels sprint:
* swipe up: Desktop Grid
* swipe down: Present Windows
* swipe left: previous virtual desktop
* swipe right: next virtual desktop
The main work is handled by two new classes: SwipeGesture and
GestureRecognizer. This is implemented in a way that it can be extended
to also recognize touch screen gestures and pinch gestures.
The SwipeGesture defines what is required for the gesture to trigger.
Currently this includes the minimum and maximum number of fingers
participating in the gesture and the direction. The gesture gets
registered in the GestureRecognizer.
The events for the gesture are fed into the GestureRecognizer. It
evaluates which gestures could trigger and tracks them for every update
of the gesture. In the process of the gesture tracking the
GestureRecognizer emits signals on the Gesture:
* started: when the Gesture gets considered for a sequence
* cancelled: the Gesture no longer matches the sequence
* triggered: the sequence ended and the Gesture still matches
The remaining changes are related to hook up the existing shortcut
framework with the new touchpad gestures. The GlobalShortcutManager
gained support for it, InputRedirection and EffectsHandler offer methods
to register a QAction. VirtualDesktopManager, PresentWindows and
DesktopGrid are adjusted to support the gesture.

Summary:
So far KWin put a version requirement on Breeze which is the current
version number of KWin. This is technically correct, but distributions
seem to have problems with it. E.g. I noticed twice in Debian testing
that kwin defaults to Plastik which happens when Breeze is not found.
I reported it, it got fixed, now it's again broken.
Thus I think that distributions have problems with the requirement of
building Breeze prior to KWin. As KWin does not depend on the minor
version, let's depend only on the actual required version, which is
5.8 in the 5.8 branch, 5.9 in the 5.9 branch and master.

Summary:
The functionality regarding triggering modifier only shortcuts is moved
out of Xkb - where it doesn't belong to - and is turned into an input
event spy listening for the changes it is interested in. Previously
the state got queried by asking e.g. for the pressed buttons, now it's
tracked directly.
The X11 side needs a larger change due to that as now pushing the events
into Xkb does not trigger modifier only shortcuts any more. Instead the
"normal" way through the platform API needs to be used which triggers the
processing of filters and spies.
The problem here is that our redirections only process events if they are
inited and that only happens on Wayland. We cannot call init on them as
that would create all the Wayland filters and spies and processing would
probably break. As an intermediate solution the spies are now processed
and there we know that it won't matter. A future solution would be to
remove the init checks completely and just send through both filters and
spies and ensure that on X11 only the supported ones are loaded.

Summary:
So far the keyboard repeat handling was triggered directly from
KeyboardInputRedirection::processKey. With the introduction of
InputEventSpies it is no longer required to be done like that, we can
split it out into a dedicated spy.
This means that processKey only has to care about processing the key
and allows us to better extend in future. So far keyboard repeat is
only functional for libinput based platforms. But it should also be
possible to use it in nested setups. By splitting it out we can
prepare for that.
Test Plan: Auto-test using repeat still passes

Summary:
as the plasmapkg2 utility is dead, scripts and tabboxes couldn't
be installed anymore, as plasmapkg2 was launched with an hardcoded
package type (and had a bunch of custom code for it)
and no packagestructure for the relevant package types existed.
the port of scripts and tabboxes to kpackage in kwin is quite
incomplete and somewhat strange (given the fact that was started by
looking manually for the file as it couldn't link to libplasma)
this makes things a bit better as now scripts and tabboxes have an actual
package structure, making it installable by kpackagetool5.
in the future, the port should be completed and replace all the manual lookup
of files with package::filePath as it should work now given that valid
structures exist

tabbox plugins and kwin scripts can be installed from knewstuff
again and can be successfully loaded

Summary:
So far the implementation of keyboard layout handling was split between
KeyboardInputRedirection and Xkb. KeyboardInputRedirection registered
the global shortcut and did the handling for layout switch and config
changes. Xkb did the notification on layout change.
Layout changes can nowadays be detected through an InputEventSpy. It
can only happen after a key change or an explicit layout switch. Thus
it does not need to be in Xkb anymore which allows to reduce Xkb to
only care about the Xkb keymap and state tracking.
This change introduces a new class KeyboardLayout which is an
InputEventSpy and takes over the task of the layout change notification
from Xkb and the layout management from KeyboardInputRedirection. Thus
everything related to management of keyboard layout is together in one
class.
This allows in future to add unit test to it (requires further cleanup
of Xkb to be able to use it and drop the InputRedirection dependency) and
opens the possibility to also take over keyboard layout management on X11
for the Plasma desktop.

Summary:
Recently we noticed that there are multiple areas where KWin needs to
inform the user about how to operate. Examples are:
* Screenshot
* ColorPicker
* Pointer constraint enabled
* Pointer constraint about to be removed
* Kill Window
For Screenshot and ColorPicker we used an EffectFrame to render it. But
this is not an optimal solution as it's lacking many features we would
need. We cannot properly use it from within KWin core, we cannot
implement features like hide on mouse over, etc. etc.
This change introduces an OnScreenNotification which supports:
* showing an icon
* showing a message
* timeout
It is Qml styled, so that it can be easily adjusted. This is a big
improvement over the EffectFrame solution. The Qml file creates a Plasma
Dialog of type OSD. Thus KWin places it like the normal OSD windows and
also looks kind of similar. In the case of KWin the focus is more on the
message, than an icon, so the icon is placed left of the text.
While the OnScreenNotification is supposed to be used like a singleton,
it doesn't use the KWin singleton pattern. Instead a small wrapper
namespace OSD is introduced which provides a convenient API for KWin
internal areas to show/hide the notification. By not using the KWin
singleton pattern, the OnScreenNotification does not depend on any other
parts of KWin and can be easily unit-tested.
A few features are still missing and will be added in further commits:
* hide-out on mouse over
* optional skip close animation (needed for screenshot)
* X11 support (not that important as it's mostly for Wayland features)

QSpinBox can't handle plural suffixes. Something previously done by
KIntSpinBox.
Using setSuffix(ki18np("pixel", "pixels")).toString() does nothing, as
at the time of conversion we don't know which one to use.
This patch uses KPluralHandlingSpinBox and correct ki18np.
Note, "new" dependency was already linked implicitly in other kwin, but
we need to add it for this KCM.
Test Plan:
Opened KCM (in English) set counter to 1 pixel and 2 pixels.
No longer had a big warning. Also appropriate number of s's appeared.
