Summary:
AbstractOutput::name() behaviour is changed so that it matches the X11
behaviour, showing an identifier like "HDMI-0".
XdgOutput.name is set to this name.
XdgOutput.description is currently set to the manufacturer name and
model, but it's not exposed to Qt so we probably don't care too much.
This should fix plasmashell changing applets when switching between X11
and wayland.
Test Plan:
Relevant unit test
I still need to run it on my laptop.

Summary:
As is KWin only had 1 Cursor which was a singleton. This made it impossible for
us to properly implement the tablet (as in drawing tablets) support and show where
we're drawing.
This patch makes it possible to have different Cursors in KWin, it makes all the
current code still follow the mouse but the tablet can still render a cursor.
Test Plan: Tests pass, been using it and works as well as before but with beautiful tablet cursors.

QDateTime::fromMSecSinceEpoch uses Qt::LocalTime by default. This involves an
expensive localtime conversion. So instead force things to use UTC, as there
is no need for timezone information when tracking durations.
This is especially noticeable on Bedrock Linux, which uses a Fuse mounted
/etc, which is slower than a plain /etc and causes quite some slowdown there.

Summary:
The GLX backend might need a combination of swap and composite timer events for
continous painting.
The reason for that is that if the buffer age extension is not available we
fall back to copies in case not the whole screen is repainted.
The timer logic is adapted to make this possible in a lean way what cleans up
the Compositor class in several ways.
Test Plan: Tested on X11 (with/without swap events, buffer age enabled) and Wayland.

Summary:
Activate intel swap events by default if available. They were hidden behind an
environmental variable because of some critical release blocking issue years
ago.
Manual testing indicates that there are no issues anymore with this extension.
Since it allows us to use swap events with MESA drivers for optimized repaints
enable swap events by default again.
For now leave a modified environment variable to switch back to using no swap
events easily.

Summary:
KDE is known for having a strong view on the client-side decorations vs
server-side decorations issue. The main argument raised against CSD is
that desktop will look less consistent when clients start drawing window
decorations by themselves, which is somewhat true. It all ties to how
well each toolkit is integrated with the desktop environment.
KDE doesn't control the desktop market on Linux. Another big "player"
is GNOME. Both KDE and GNOME have very polarized views on in which
direction desktop should move forward. The KDE community is pushing more
toward server-side decorations while the GNOME community is pushing
more toward client-side decorations. Both communities have developed
great applications and it's not rare to see a GNOME application being
used in KDE Plasma. The only problem is that these different views are
not left behind the curtain and our users pay the price. Resizing GTK
clients in Plasma became practically impossible due to resize borders
having small hit area.
When a client draws its window decoration, it's more likely that it also
draws the drop-shadow around the decoration. The compositor must know
the extents of the shadow so things like snapping and so on work as
expected. And here lies the problem... While the xdg-shell protocol has
a way to specify such things, the NetWM spec doesn't have anything like
that. There's _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS in the wild, however the problem with
it is that it's a proprietary atom, which is specific only to GTK apps.
Due to that, _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS wasn't implemented because implementing
anything like that would require major changes in how we think about
geometry.
Recent xdg-shell window geometry patches adjusted geometry abstractions
in kwin to such a degree that it's very easy to add support for client
side decorated clients on X11. We just have to make sure that the
X11Client class provides correct buffer geometry and frame geometry when
the gtk frame extents are set.
Even though the X11 code is feature frozen, I still think it's worth
to have _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS support in kwin because it will fix the resize
issues. Also, because KWin/Wayland is unfortunately far from becoming
default, it will help us with testing some implementation bits of the
window geometry from xdg-shell.

Summary:
Compositing in X11 was done time shifted, meaning that we paint first, then
wait one vblank interval length and present on prepareRenderingFrame the
previous paint result. This is supposed to make sure we don't miss the vblank
and in case of block till retrace be able to continue issuing commands and
only shortly before next vblank present.
This is counter-intuitiv, not how we do it on Wayland or even on MESA with X.
The reason seems to be that the GLX backend was in the beginning written
against Nvidia proprietary driver which needed this but nowadays even this
driver defaults to non-blocking behavior on buffer swap.
Therefore remove this legacy anomaly fully and directly present after paint.
We then wait one refresh cycle and in the future can optimize this by delaying
the paint and present till shortly before vsync.
Test Plan: kwin_x11 tested on i915 and Nvidia proprietary driver.

Summary:
Selecting not to vsync does not make sense for an X11 compositor. In the end
we want clients to be able to present async if they want to but the compositor
is supposed to send swaps with vsync to the XServer in order to not generate
tearing artifacts.
There was also a detection logic which did some questionable things in case
vsync was not available. I don't think this is necessary at all since we can
just always run a timer to present with or without vsync.

Summary:
It is not clear what the advantage of triple buffering is for KWin. An X11
compositor is meant to swap buffers once every monitor cycle. For that triple
buffering is not necessary.
The functionality is not maintained, does not reliably work as displayed by
the existence of an environment variable to force some behavior, pollutes
our code and every compositing-related problem that might be mitigated with
triple buffering should find a simpler and more fitting solution with other
means.
There is one caveat which is if we shall block for retrace. We set it
currently according to the result of the swap profiler and in the most common
case with double buffering it is set to true. But on Nvidia systems this might
be actual the wrong behavior. Instead of trying to work around this ignore
the issue for now and move the overall architecture to something less complex
by presenting after paint how we do it in the Wayland DRM backend and with
double buffering on GLX (although this is at the moment also borken because
we actually present then twice).

Summary:
EffectQuickView/Scene is a convenient class to render a QtQuick
scenegraph into an effect.
Current methods (such as present windows) involve creating an underlying
platform window which is expensive, causes a headache to filter out
again in the rest of the code, and only works as an overlay.
The new class exposes things more natively to an effect where we don't
mess with real windows, we can perform the painting anywhere in the view
and we don't have issues with hiding/closing.
QtQuick has both software and hardware accelerated modes, and kwin also
has 3 render backends. Every combination is supported.
* When used in OpenGL mode for both, we render into an FBO export the
texture ID then it's up to the effect to render that into a scene.
* When using software QtQuick rendering we blit into an image, upload
that into a KWinGLTexture which serves as an abstraction layer and
render that into the scene.
* When using GL for QtQuick and XRender/QPainter in kwin everything is
rendered into the internal FBO, blit and exported as an image.
* When using software rendering for both an image gets passed directly.
Mouse and keyboard events can be forwarded, only if the effect
intercepts them.
The class is meant to be generic enough that we can remove all the
QtQuick code from Aurorae.
The intention is also to replace EffectFrameImpl using this backend and
we can kill all of the EffectFrame code throughout the scenes.
The close button in present windows will also be ported to this,
simplifiying that code base.
Classes that handle the rendering and handling QML are intentionally
split so that in the future we can have a declarative effects API create
overlays from within the same context. Similar to how one can
instantiate windows from a typical QML scene.
Notes:
I don't like how I pass the kwin GL context from the backends into the
effect, but I need something that works with the library separation. It
also currently has wayland problem if I create a QOpenGLContext before
the QPA is set up with a scene - but I don't have anything better?
I know for the EffectFrame we need an API to push things through the
effects stack to handle blur/invert etc. Will deal with that when we
port the EffectFrame.

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.

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).
