Summary:
alternative approach: try to resize the winidow to make room for the keyboard.
the new input wayland protocol doesn't have anymore the overlap rectangle (and it would not be going to work with qwidget apps anyways)
in the future will probably be needed anextension to the input protocol v3 which partially gets back this, tough window resizing is needed regardless
what's missing: the resize should be "temporary" and the window should be restored to its previous geometry when the keyboard closes
Test Plan: tested with test QML code

Summary:
This change adds a DBus API to query whether the virtual keyboard is
currently enabled and provides DBus methods to request that the virtual
keyboard gets enabled/disabled. This is useful for e.g. providing a
Plasmoid or for convertables where the tablet mode needs to be enabled.

Summary:
The idea is to have KWin provide a virtual keyboard. To support this
KWin uses the QT_IM_MODULE qtvirtualkeyboard and makes sure that the
QPA plugin loads it.
KWin has a new class VirtualKeyboard which acts as the focus object and
the "proxy" for input methods. The QPA plugin ensures that this is the
focusObject, so that all input method related events are sent to this
class. From there it will be possible to delegate to other applications
through the Wayland interfaces.
