At the same time the xinput2 integration is split out of X11Cursor
and made a standalone part of the platform plugin. XInput integration
is nowadays not only used by the cursor position polling, but also
for modifier only shortcuts.
By splitting it out the modifier shortcuts start to work also when
one doesn't have anything requesting a mouse position polling.
This also simplifies the conditional builds: xinput integration is
only included if we have support for it at compile time without having
to have many ifdefs in the cursor implementation. For the inclusion of
cursor in the kcmkwin this also removes all the ifdefs.
The key events are only requested if we have xinput 2.1. Otherwise we
would not get all raw events if the input device gets grabbed.

All pointer related code is moved into a new class called
PointerInputRedirection.
The main idea is to simplify the code and make it easier to maintain.
Therefore also a few changes in the setup were performed:
* before init() is called, no processing is performed
* init() is only called on Wayland and after Workspace is created
* init property is set to false once Workspace or WaylandServer is
destroyed
Thus code can operate on the following assumptions:
* Workspace is valid
* WaylandServer is valid
* ScreenLocker integration is used
The various checks whether there is a waylandServer() and whether
there is a seat are no longer needed.
Some of the checks have been reordered to be faster in the most common
use case of using libinput. E.g. whether warping is supported is first
evaluated by the variable bound to whether we have libinput and only if
that is false the backend is checked.
The new class doesn't have signals but invokes the signals provided
by InputRedirection. I didn't want to add new signals as I consider
them as not needed. The areas in KWin needing those signals should
be ported to InputEventFilters.
Used by Cursor to properly emit the mouseChanged signal which for
historic reasons includes the keyboard modifiers.
Again some fiddling around with the autotests and kcmrules needed to
make it compile. This needs improvement!
New inheriting class which uses the InputRedirection to track the cursor
position. It doesn't support warping of cursor.
This introduces a slight dependency loop in the startup. Cursor needs to
be created after the WaylandBackend to ensure that the operation mode is
set correctly. But the WaylandBackend itself is accessing Cursor. It
should be safe as inside the WaylandBackend it's only accessed after
callbacks.
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.

works, because I haven't written any kind of docs for it yet, and
the most important button doesn't work yet either (yes, that one that
has it written on it). I just hope the GUI doesn't suck too much, because
I'm really bad at such things.
