Summary: There are methods to create and remove virtual desktops via dbus, but I think it would be convenient to provide these methods for KWin scripts as well.

Summary:
Currently, if one wants to monitor for new X11 and Wayland clients, they
have to listen for two signals. Workspace::clientAdded() is emitted only
for X11 and Xwayland clients, while WaylandServer::shellClientAdded() is
emitted only for xdg-shell clients. Such design doesn't scale well.
As the first towards emitting Workspace::clientAdded() for new Wayland
clients, this change replaces the X11Client parameter in the clientAdded
signal with AbstractClient.
Test Plan: Tests still pass.

Summary:
Currently each managed X11 client is represented with an instance of
Client class, however the name of that class is very generic and the
only reason why it's called that way is because historically kwin
was created as an x11 window manager, so "Client" was a sensible choice.
With introduction of wayland support, things had changed and therefore
Client needs to be renamed to X11Client in order to better reflect what
that class stands for.
Renaming of Client to X11Client was agreed upon during the last KWin
sprint.
Test Plan: Compiles, the test suite is still green.

Summary:
Because KWin is a very old project, we use three kinds of null pointer
literals: 0, NULL, and nullptr. Since C++11, it's recommended to use
nullptr keyword.
This change converts all usages of 0 and NULL literal to nullptr. Even
though it breaks git history, we need to do it in order to have consistent
code as well to ease code reviews (it's very tempting for some people to
add unrelated changes to their patches, e.g. converting NULL to nullptr).
Test Plan: Compiles.

Summary:
Currently, if a script relies on clientAdded to setup some required
connections, then it probably won't work with Wayland clients because
clientAdded is emitted only for X11 clients.
Test Plan:
* Installed sticky window snapping script, it works;
* Installed a couple of tiling scripts, with some small changes, they work.

Currently, clientArea(ClientAreaOption, const Client *) and clientList()
are quite X11-specific, which results in having some tiling scripts not
working with Wayland clients. This change is the first step towards working
tiling scripts in the Wayland session.
Summary:
KWin::displayWidth and KWin::displayHeight are bound to X11 which
doesn't make much sense on X11. In addition KWin internally knows
the overall display dimensions through the Screens singleton class.

They were only delegating into switchWindow(Direction), so let's do the
same through std::bind in kwinbindings and delegate to it directly in
scripting's WorkspaceWrapper.
Test Plan: Not yet, want to add test case for Workspace::switchWindow

Summary:
Thanks to std::bind we don't need that many different slots to setup the
global shortcut connections. Instead we can have one shared
implementation which takes the argument and passes it to the window.
To support std::bind arguments in kwinbindings the initShortcut method
and dependencies are adjusted as well as a new macro is added.
As I don't want to include abstract_client.h in workspace.h a new enum
is created for the quick tiling flags used in Workspace. This caused a
larger refactoring as the change to an enum class also caused quite some
changes.
Test Plan: Affected test cases still pass

The version provided is only compatible with QtScript so it became
necessary to split WorkspaceWrapper into a base class and two child
classes, one for QtScript and one for QmlScript.

This is a temporary workaround for bug 349992 which causes freezes
during startup as kwin and kamd dead lock each other on DBus.
To workaround we don't call Activities::create and check in every
usage of Activities::self() whether the pointer is valid.
As a result kwin_wayland now starts pretty fast.

Instead of passing the macro based Predicate to findClient it now
expects a function which can be passed to std::find_if.
Existing code like:
xcb_window_t window; // our test window
Client *c = findClient(WindowMatchPredicated(window));
becomes:
Client *c = findClient([window](const Client *c) {
return c->window() == window;
});
The advantage is that it is way more flexible and has the logic what
to check for directly with the code and not hidden in the macro
definition.
In addition there is a simplified overload for the very common case of
matching a window id against one of Client's windows. This overloaded
method takes a Predicate and the window id.
Above example becomes:
Client *c = findClient(Predicate::WindowMatch, w);
Existing code is migrated to use the simplified method taking
MatchPredicate and window id. The very few cases where a more complex
condition is tested the lambda function is used. As these are very
local tests only used in one function it's not worthwhile to add further
overloads to the findClient method in Workspace.
With this change all the Predicate macro definitions are removed from
utils.h as they are now completely unused.

Screens provides a size which is constructed from the size of
the bounding geometry of all screens and provides an overload taking
an int to return the size of a specified screen. For geometry() a new
ovload is added without an argument, which is just a convenient wrapper
for QRect(QPoint(0, 0), size()).
Both new methods are exported to effects and scripting as new
properties there called virtualScreenSize and virtualScreenGeometry.
The (virtual) size gets cached in screens and is updated whenever the
count or geometry changes.
Construction of Screens is slightly changed by moving the init code
from ctor into a virtual method init(). Reason is that we ended in
a loop with accessing the singleton pointer before it was set.

Following the approaches of other split out functionality Screens is a
singleton class created by Workspace.
The class takes over the responsibility for:
* screenChanged signal delayed by timer
* number of screens
* geometry of given screen
* active screen
* config option for active screen follows mouse
The class contains a small abstraction layer and has a concrete subclass
wrapping around QDesktopWidget, but the idea is to go more low level and
interact with XRandR directly to get more detailed information.
All over KWin the usage from QDesktopWidget is ported over to the new
Screens class.

All activities related code moves into new singleton class Activities.
This class gets only included into the build if the build option is
enabled which means there are less ifdefs all over the code and it also
handles better the moc doesn't like ifdef case.
The class holds the list of open and all activites, the current and the
previous activity and the KActivities::Controller. It also emits the
signals for any activities related changes.
Workspace still contains some activities related code. That is the
adjustment on change of current activity. Nevertheless the code looks
much cleaner now and does not contain the confusing naming conflict with
takeActivity() which existed before.
In all the places where Activities got used the code got adjusted and
quite often the ifdef got added with a fallback for the disabled case.
Since the introduction of VirtualDesktopManager we do have a signal
emitted when the desktop layout changes which we can use as NOTIFY for
the desktopGrid properties.
REVIEW: 108953
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.
New properties for the current activity and the available
activities plus related signals in scripts. Signals added to
effects.

If workspace is exported as a context property there seem to be
issues with the signals which are not bound to a property of
WorkspaceWrapper.
This problems seems to be fixable by exporting the workspace
property as a global property on the script engine.
As a side-effect this also resolves the issue with the clientList,
so we can drop the hack again.

Sometimes Qt is surprising. Apparently QML has problems with a
QList<KWin::Client*> and wants to have a QList<QObject*> which
cannot be used in QtScript.
There ends my dream of having one API for both JavaScript and QML.
So with QtScript it is:
workspace.clientList()
and in QML it is:
workspace.getClientList()
Client has a property for demands attention and Workspace
is emitting a signal whenever the demands attention state
of any Client changes.
