With libinput we have the problem that we need to have privileges to
open the device files. In order to not need wrappers or suid bits, we
use logind. This means that kwin_wayland has to be the session controler.
A LogindIntegration is added to connect to logind and wrap the dbus
calls. This is based on the logind integration done for ksld in
ksmserver. The LogindIntegration is started by Workspace and the
InputRedirection tries to become the session controller and starts the
libinput integration only after this succeeded.
Libinput is an optional dependency for getting low level input events.
As opening the input devices requires root privs this is rather
pointless in the current state. But there is a small added test app which
can be executed with root privs to demonstrate the functionality. To
properly get input events we need a wrapper like it's used in weston.
So far the following is setup:
* opening devices found by udev
* forwarding keyboard events to InputRedirection
* forwarding pointer button events to InputRedirection
* forwarding pointer axis events to InputRedirection
* signals emitted for pointer motion events
Pointer motion events need some further work as they are provided
as delta events. We need to track that and map them properly.
Also missing are touch events due to me not having a touch screen.
It should be fairly simple to setup the touch events, though.
Also hotplugging of devices is not yet implemented.
A small test application to use the Wayland Client classes. It opens
a fullscreen Shell surface and reacts to input events:
* q quits
* left click toggles the background color animation
* right click quits

So far the Unmanaged got released after an XCB_UNMAP_NOTIFY. This event
gets created after xcb_unmap_window or after xcb_destroy_window. In the
latter case the window is already distroyed and any of KWin's cleanup
calls will cause a BadWindow (or similar) error.
The idea to circumvent these errors is to try to wait for the
DESTROY_NOTIFY event. To do so the processing of the release is slightly
delayed. If KWin gets the destroy notify before the delay times out the
Unamanged gets released immediately but with a Destroy flag. For this a
new enum ReleaseToplevel is introduced and Unmanage::release takes this
as an argument instead of the bool which indicated OnShutdown. Also this
enum is added to Toplevel::finishCompositing so that it can ignore the
destroyed case and not generate an error.

This provides a new protocol intended to be used by auto-hiding panels
to make use of the centralized screen edges. To use it a Client can
set an X11 property of type _KDE_NET_WM_SCREEN_EDGE_SHOW to KWin.
As value it takes:
* 0: top edge
* 1: right edge
* 2: bottom edge
* 3: left edge
KWin will hide the Client (hide because unmap or minimize would break
it) and create an Edge. If that Edge gets triggered the Client is shown
again and the property gets deleted. If the Client doesn't border the
specified screen edge the Client gets shown immediately so that we
never end in a situation that we cannot unhide the auto-hidden panel
again. The exact process is described in the documentation of
ScreenEdges. The Client can request to be shown again by deleting the
property.
If KWin gets restarted the state is read from the property and it is
tried to create the edge as described.
As this is a KWin specific extension we need to discuss what it means
for Clients using this feature with other WMs: it does nothing. As
the Client gets hidden by KWin and not by the Client, it just doesn't
get hidden if the WM doesn't provide the feature. In case of an
auto-hiding panel this seems like a good solution given that we don't
want to hide it if we cannot unhide it. Of course there's the option
for the Client to provide that feature itself and if that's wanted we
would need to announce the feature in the _NET_SUPPORTED atom. At the
moment that doesn't sound like being needed as Plasma doesn't want to
provide an own implementation.
The implementation comes with a small test application showing how
the feature is intended to be used.

The test application can verify that KWin correctly interprets the
WM_NORMAL_HINTS as described in ICCCM section 4.1.2.3 for the
combination of min size, base size and size increment.
Introduces an optional dependency to xcb-icccm library. It's optional
as the last time we tried to use it build.kde.org didn't like it at
all. Thus it should be possible to disable building this test app if
the dependency is not found.
Completing the task of replacing all NULL to nullptr in all the files in tests folder
(also substituting some "0" used as nullptr with nullptr)

It's basically a run of the port-cmake.sh script in here, mostly the changes
are the following:
- Using KF5::* targets
- Using the proper macros, following recent developments in frameworks
* "" needs to be wrapped in QStringLiteral
* QString::fromUtf8 needed for const char* and QByteArray
* QByteArray::constData() needed to get to the const char*
Cross fading with previous pixmap is achieved by referencing the old
window pixmap. WindowPaintData has a cross-fade-factor which interpolates
between 0.0 (completely old pixmap) to 1.0 (completely new pixmap).
If a cross fading factor is set and a previous pixmap is valid this one
is rendered on top of the current pixmap with opacity adjusted. This
results in a smoother fading.
To simplify the setup the AnimationEffect is extended and also takes care
about correctly (un)referencing the previous window pixmap. The maximize
effect is adjusted to make use of this new capabilities.
Unfortunately this setup has a huge problem with the case that the window
decoration gets smaller (e.g. from normal to maximized state). In this
situation it can happen that the old window is rendered with parts outside
the content resulting in video garbage being shown. To prevent this a set
of new WindowQuads is generated with normalized texture coordinates in
the safe area which contains real content.
For OpenGL2Window a PreviousContentLeaf is added which is only set up in
case the crass fading factor is set.

KWin::Cursor can track changes to the cursor image. It supports a
start/stop tracking to not handle these events if nobody is interested in
them. When enabled and the cursor image changes a signal is emitted with
the serial number of the new cursor image.
To track cursor image changes xcb_xfixes_select_cursor_input is used (see
XFixes Version 5.0 protocol, section 7).
This could be useful for the zoom effect when it replaces the cursor.

The idea behind this class is to relieve the developer from having to
call xcb_destroy_window once it is no longer needed. That is having a
RAII approach to windows.
In addition the class provides some simple method wrappers for the most
common use cases inside KWin:
* map
* unmap
* setGeometry - basically a moveResizeWindow
* ...
Follow-up to cbb7f57; the code built on Linux despite the lack of required
includes most likely because netdb.h ends up indirectly including
sys/types.h and sys/socket.h.
It's not really needed, the required functionality can be achieved in a
more implicit way. The reply pointer is managed by the Wrapper class as
long as the method take() is not invoked. This method follows the
semantics of QScopedPointer::take(). That is the pointer is set to null
and the responsibility to free the pointer is passed to the callee.
By this change we do not have the overhead of creating a QSharedPointer.
In addition the Wrapper provides a copy ctor and assignment operator also
using the semantics of take().
Most windows use the hostname in WM_CLIENT_MACHINE, but there are windows
using the FQDN (for example libreoffice). So instead of "foo" it is
"foo.local.net" or similar. The logic so far has been unable to properly
determine whether windows with FQDN are on the local system.
In order to solve this problem the handling is split out into an own
class which stores the information of hostname and whether it is a local
machine. This is to not query multiple times. To determine whether the
Client is on the local system getaddrinfo is used for the own hostname
and the FQDN provided in WM_CLIENT_MACHINE. If one of the queried
names matches, we know that it is on the local machine. The old logic to
compare the hostname is still used and getaddrinfo is only a fallback in
case hostname does not match.
The problem with getaddrinfo is, that it accesses the network and by that
could block. To circumvent this problem the calls are moved into threads
by using QtConcurrent::run.
Obviously this brings disadvantages. When trying to resolve whether a
Client is on the local machine and a FQDN is used, the information is
initially wrong. The new ClientMachine class emits a signal when the
information that the system is local becomes available, but for some
things this is just too late:
* window rules are already gathered
* Session Management has already taken place
In both cases this is an acceptable loss. For window rules it just needs
a proper matching of the machine in case of localhost (remote hosts are
not affected). And the case of session management is very academic as it
is unlikely that a restoring session contains remote windows.

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 public member variables for opacity, saturation and brightness
are removed in favor for getter and setters. The variables are
moved into a private class. Those are now qreal instead of double.
To make usage inside the effects easier a multiply method is added
which multiplies the current value with passed in factor and returns
the new value in a functional programming style.
