ThumbnailItem tries to find the window where it is embedded in
through a context propery containing the window id of the declarative
view. This works fine for e.g. TabBox but not for Plasma.Dialog as
that opens a new window.

By default clip is enabled. This means that if the thumbnail would
overlap the "parent" window, it does not get rendered at all. If set
to false it will always be rendered. This is required for window strip
where the complete screen width is used, so overlap does not matter.
A new QML item "ThumbnailItem" is registered to the TabBox. The
C++ implementation finds the EffectWindow of the TabBox and adds
itself to the EffectWindow.
While rendering the EffectWindow the information for all registered
ThumbnailItems are extracted and the thumbnail is rendered on top
of the EffectWindow.
This has obvious limitations like you cannot put other QML items
on top of the thumbnail. Nevertheless it works well enough to
be a possible replacement for e.g. BoxSwitch effect.
When compositing is disabled an icon is rendered instead of the
Thumbnail.
One TabBox Layout inspired by BoxSwitch Effect is added. For the
KCM small pre-rendered items are used.
