Summary:
Currently code base of kwin can be viewed as two pieces. One is very
ancient, and the other one is more modern, which uses new C++ features.
The main problem with the ancient code is that it was written before
C++11 era. So, no override or final keywords, lambdas, etc.
Quite recently, KDE compiler settings were changed to show a warning if
a virtual method has missing override keyword. As you might have already
guessed, this fired back at us because of that ancient code. We had
about 500 new compiler warnings.
A "solution" was proposed to that problem - disable -Wno-suggest-override
and the other similar warning for clang. It's hard to call a solution
because those warnings are disabled not only for the old code, but also
for new. This is not what we want!
The main argument for not actually fixing the problem was that git
history will be screwed as well because of human factor. While good git
history is a very important thing, we should not go crazy about it and
block every change that somehow alters git history. git blame allows to
specify starting revision for a reason.
The other argument (human factor) can be easily solved by using tools
such as clang-tidy. clang-tidy is a clang-based linter for C++. It can
be used for various things, e.g. fixing coding style(e.g. add missing
braces to if statements, readability-braces-around-statements check),
or in our case add missing override keywords.

Summary:
Currently, the test doesn't verify that each rule does what it should,
e.g. a force rule is a force rule and not force temporarily, etc. This
as it turns out hides some bugs, e.g. all remember rules do not work,
forced window shortcuts can't be released, etc.

Summary:
Our rule handling has had a grave error for years. Whenever a window
with a rule was openend or closed the kwinrulesrc was written back to
disk.
The reason for this behavior is that temporary rules need to be discarded
once they were used. For that there is a method discardUsed which invokes
requestDiskStorage whenever a rule for the window was found. But it did
not check whether there was a rule requiring this.
This change modifies the discardUsed to track whether it changed a rule
and only writes back in case there was a change.

This is the first test for force rules. As those cannot be set through
the temporary rules message the rulesrc must be modified. To support this
RuleBook gained a setConfig method.
To my positive surprise the rules already work as intended.
Summary:
So far window rule specific functionality was only implemented in Client
and in ShellClient there was only a dummy implementation. This change
moves the client_rules member variable from Client to AbstractClient.
Areas which would not compile anymore are adjusted.
This is a first step to get window rule support for Wayland windows.

Summary:
The RuleBook is created during Workspace startup, so it's a required
component for the overall KWin session. It uses a KXMessages object which
means it has a hard X11 runtime dependency.
This change makes the dependency optional and creates the KXMessages once
X11 is available.

Test exposes problem of window rules not able to match window roles in
a case insensitive manner.

This allows to pin the focus on certain window as well
as to more easily give it away on others (typically launchers)

Adds a new force rule to specify the color scheme to use on the window
decoration. The scheme is stored by the name of the .colors file name.
So for Oxygen.colors the value is Oxygen.
When loaded the scheme is located and the full path to the colors file
is used. This is because the X property also uses the full path.
Workspace is hardly interacting with Rules and all the Rules related code
is already in rules.cpp. This highly qualifies to move all the code out
of Workspace and improve the names.

and btw. replace legacy "ignoreposition" by "ignoregeometry"
this will allow to use "apply initially" as "force" used to act
(ignore position on placement) and "force" to prevent clients
from reconfiguring themselves (to not break a tabgroup or to just
not be annoying)

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.

As discussed on the mailinglist [1] the tiling support is
removed from KWin. The main reasons for this step are:
* it is unmaintained
* it is a mode not used by any of the core KWin team
* original developer said at Akademy 2012 that he is not
interested in picking up the work again
* tiling has quite some bugs, e.g. multi screen not supported
* is conflicting with other concepts in KWin, e.g. activities
There is ongoing work to get tiling supported through a KWin
script, which is a preferred way as it does not influence the
existing C++ code base.

- makes the rule enforced even when the user tries to change the

Drawbound was nowadays only used when compositing is disabled.
For the composited case, the drawbound was replaced by the resize
effect and in fact we should always just use the resize effect.

The KDecoration library lives in libkdecorations/ now.
Installation pathes are unchanged, so this does not influence 3rd party
decorations.
The changes in the KWin main directory are required due to incorrect
includes.

This commit merges the kwin-tiling branch. Ideally it shouldn't break anything and add a few features ;-)
It was applied as a patch. Do not attempt to merge the branch directly, it has a few issues.
This feature is currently experimental, although it hasn't crashed in quite a long time. It lacks some features and probably leaks some memory. Fixes will be on the way.
