In effects it's obvious that compositing is enabled, so specifying the
translucent element is no problem.
In tabbox a context property "compositing" is injected which decides
whether "translucent" or "opaque" elements should be used. Here the
translucent elements are only used if the Blur effect is available - for
this a new Effect::Feature Blur is introduced and in addition it is
tested whether the theme provides the translucent element.
Also the masking is adjusted to ensure that only the shadow is not
blurred.
Reason for this change is that Plasma theme seems not always to pick up
whether compositing is used when used from inside KWin. It does not cover
the Desktop Change OSD which uses PlasmaCore.Dialog and there we cannot
(yet) inject that we use compositing.
Overall I'm quite unhappy with this patch and I do hope we can fix it in
the proper place in the lifetime of 4.10 and revert this patch.

Adds a section about screens to supportInformation containing:
* whether multi-head is used
* in case of multi-head the screen number
* the number of screens
* geometry per screen
That should hopefully end the two often asked questions about the user's
screen setup, especially if they say they use multi-head.

Following the approach of ShowPaint effect by tracking the actual painted
regions per window to determine whether the painted area intersects with
one of the thumbnails.

Animation now completely based on the expandedGeometry which includes the
shadows and another repaint at the end of the animation is added to
ensure that there are no leftover shadows.

due to plasma change, shadow is not included by default, hence kwin
tabbox need to handle shadow by itself, and due to kwin is compositor
and have shadow as effects, it's not a good idea to use X property to
pass shadow from kwin to X and to kwin. This change use the old way to
draw shadow side the tabbox, and partly move the blur region setting to
qml.
