With the new compositing scheduling, we want the screen to be redrawn as
close as possible to the next vblank. Furthermore, compositing is no
longer driven by a timer. This change removes the NoSwapEncourage swap
strategy as it doesn't make sense now, in addition to that it just does
not work on Wayland.
The following click behaviors are defined:
* Switch desktop and activate window [default]
* Switch desktop only
The former emulates the previous default of activating clicked windows
using the Present Windows effect. The latter introduces a new mode where
the clicked window is not activated, allowing the user to select a
virtual desktop without worrying about disrupting the last active
window.
The configuration toggle that controlled the use of the Present Windows
effect has been subsumed into the first click behavior, i.e., if the
effect is enabled, it will be implicitly triggered.
Since the port to KConfigXT, the placement setting in `kwinrulesrc` now stores the enum value instead of a string equivalent.
The strings and enum values are taken from `placement.h/.cpp`

Summary:
If the listed interpreter does not exist, kconf_update skips the update.
The update script uses python3, so declare that properly.
Test Plan: Saw the error by accident, it's gone now.

Tested output piping test lines into the script with different settings
Removed from my kdeglobals
Invoked script. New value appeared
(note that if you manually test multiple times locally you have to
cleanup the $version info from
both kdeglobals and kwinrc or the migration will be skipped)

Summary:
If a user has set his border size explicitly in the past also respect this
selection with the new auto border size mode by setting auto borders to
false on update.
For this a kconf_update file and a sed based shell script is added.
Test Plan: Manually.

I forgot to add a kconf update that moves existing users of the builtin
Dim Screen effect to the scripted version of the effect, sorry.

Summary:
Now, when the scripting effects API has all required ingredients to port
the Scale effect to JavaScript we finally can do it.
The main rationale for porting this effect to JavaScript is that
scripted effects API lets us focus more on what we want instead of
"how".
Visually, the ported version doesn't deviate from the C++ version.
Test Plan:
* Enable the Scale effect;
* Open/close a window.

Summary:
There were several reasons to rewrite the Minimize Animation effect in
JavaScript: to simplify code and to get rid of full repaints. One could
say that nothing prevents us from calculating the dirty region in
postPaintScreen or postPaintWindow and it is correct, but with the
scripting effects API the dirty region will be calculated for us, so we
can focus more on "what we want" instead of "how".
Visually, the "old" effect and the rewritten one look quite the same.
Except one tiny bit: if a window doesn't have an icon in the task manager,
it won't be animated. The reason for that is the purpose of this effect is
to show where the window will be after it's minimized, if the window
doesn't have icon in the task manager, one can't click at the center of
the screen to unminimize the window.
There is one significant change, the name of the effect was changed to
"Squash". If we put this effect and the Magic lamp effect under "Window
Minimize Animation" category (or if we add some "heading" label), then
the old name and the name of the category would "conflict". The new name
was suggested by Nate Graham and it very closely describes what the
effect does. "Scale" doesn't fit this effect because while a window is
being animated, its aspect ratio is not preserved.

Summary:
It's superseded by the new scale effect(D13461).
Existing users of this effect will be migrated to the new scale effect.
