abb9bf1355 [wayland] Create event dispatcher in QPA plugin
We no longer need to have the event dispatcher created before starting
the QApplication, thus we can leave it to the QPA plugin to creat it.

Also we don't need to implement our own dispatcher any more but can
use one from Qt5PlatformSupport as we link it anyways. The special
need for dispatching the WaylandServer is no longer needed as we can
explicitly dispatch it from the QPA plugin if needed.

26b3569a0b [wayland] Add a QPA plugin for kwin_wayland
This introduces an own QPA plugin for KWin. QtWayland's plugin is not
a good solution for KWin as QtWayland is meant for Wayland clients and
not for a Wayland server. Given that it makes more sense to have a very
minimal QPA plugin which supports the use cases we actually have.

With our own QPA plugin we should be able to improve the following
areas:
* no need to create Wayland server before QApplication
* Qt::BypassWindowManagerHint can be supported
* no workaround for creating OpenGL context in main thread
* sharing OpenGL context with Qt
* OpenGL context for Qt on libhybris backend

The plugin supports so far the following features:
* creating a QPlatformWindow using KWayland::Client (ShellSurface)
* creating a QPlatformBackingStore using a ShmPool
* creating a QPlatformOpenGLContext with Wayland::EGL
* or creating a QPlatformOpenGLContext which shares with KWin's scene
* creating a QPlatformScreen for each KWayland::Client::Output
* QPlatformNativeInterface compatible to QtWayland
