We have windows which we don't want to destroy (e.g. the managed
clients) but still would like to be able to use the nicer API.
Therefore the not creating ctor and reset method have a second bool
arg to whether destroy the window or not. Default is to keep the
RAII functionality.
Wrapped in xcbutils.
In addition the check whether another WM is running in main.cpp is
improved by doing a checked request and directly checking for the
error. If there is an error, KWin puts out an error message and
quits.
This dependency is causing build problems on a number of systems,
and it doesn't make much sense to bring in a whole library for three
one-line convenience functions.
xcb/xcb_iccm.h isn't C++ safe (some versions) because it has
a variable called "class" in function signatures. The hack
is to define "class" to something else before that header is
included, and then undef "class" immediately afterwards.

The type of the transient_for related variables are changed to
xcb_window_t. They cannot be Xcb::Window as we don't take ownership over
the transient for window.
Variables are renamed to m_camelCase to follow naming scheme.
A wrapper for retrieving the TransientFor hint is added to the Xcb
Wrappers.
KWin::Cursor can track changes to the cursor image. It supports a
start/stop tracking to not handle these events if nobody is interested in
them. When enabled and the cursor image changes a signal is emitted with
the serial number of the new cursor image.
To track cursor image changes xcb_xfixes_select_cursor_input is used (see
XFixes Version 5.0 protocol, section 7).
This could be useful for the zoom effect when it replaces the cursor.

With the removal of BoxSwitch all effects which want mouse events use the
fullscreen input window. The available functionality is too complex both
in EffectsHandler and in the Effects.
With this change only fullscreen input windows are supported and all
effects share the input window. This means there is at maximum one input
window. This simplifies the code in the Effects as they don't have to
keep track of the window they created any more. In EffectsHandler it
means that only one window needs to be created, destroyed and raised.
Also it means that we can properly react on screen size changes which had
been ignored in the past. Also quite some roundtrips to X are no longer
needed as we do not need to query the window geometry when creating the
input window.

It's only used from useractions.cpp which means that it's not the best
fit in utils. We can see the problems with it given that it was in an
ifdef and it included quite some headers into everything.

this broke re-embedding clients
XReparentWindow causes an unmap of mapped clients, currently leading into releaseClient()
This will (among other) eg. reparent the client to the root and this is (usually?) executed after the original XReparentWindow, so the client does not end up where it's supposed to be.

The Client::cursor property is changed from QCursor to Qt::CursorShape
and renamed to m_cursor (as all usages are adjusted).
This property is mostly used to define the cursor on e.g. the extended
deco border window. To make this easier a XDefineCursor replacement is
added to xcbutils.h both as a static method and as a member function to
Xcb::Window.
Using Xcb::Window to manage the xcb_window_t and simplify the code - no
longer need to check whether the input_window is valid before calling e.g.
map, as that's handled in Xcb::Window.
One XLib usage for setting cursor is still present. This will be ported
once all the QCursor::handle() get removed.

The idea behind this class is to relieve the developer from having to
call xcb_destroy_window once it is no longer needed. That is having a
RAII approach to windows.
In addition the class provides some simple method wrappers for the most
common use cases inside KWin:
* map
* unmap
* setGeometry - basically a moveResizeWindow
* ...
Use WindowAttributes and WindowGeometry everywhere where the xcb commands
had already been used.
Introduces another wrapper for overlay window and a subclass for query
tree which also wrapps the children command.
It's not really needed, the required functionality can be achieved in a
more implicit way. The reply pointer is managed by the Wrapper class as
long as the method take() is not invoked. This method follows the
semantics of QScopedPointer::take(). That is the pointer is set to null
and the responsibility to free the pointer is passed to the callee.
By this change we do not have the overhead of creating a QSharedPointer.
In addition the Wrapper provides a copy ctor and assignment operator also
using the semantics of take().
Code section had been in an #ifndef NDEBUG which is the reason why I did
not find the usage of Extensions there and why it always compiled
successfully.
Some data elements which got dropped needed to be added again like a name
for the extension and errorBase, etc.
Sorry for the inconvenience of a semi-broken master.
The extension handling is removed from kwinglobals and moved into the
xcbutils in KWin core in namespace KWin::Xcb. The motivation for this
change is that the Extensions are only used in KWin core and are marked
as internal. So there is no need to have them in the library.
What remains in Extensions are the non-native pixmaps. This will be
removed once we are on Qt 5 as QPixmap can no longer reference an XPixmap.
The remaining code in kwinglobals also still initialize the XLib versions
of extensions emitting events. It seems like there are no XEvents emitted
if not done so even if the extension is correctly initialized with xcb.
This needs to be removed once the event handling is ported over to xcb.

Two helper classes WindowGeometry and WindowAttributes which can be
used to request the geometry and attributes more easily. This is based on
a templated class, taking cookieType, replyType and function pointers to
the request and reply functions as template parameters.
The ctor performs the async request and the reply is stored in a
QSharedPointer. Whenever the reply is needed it is checked whether it
has already been retrieved and if not will block by calling the reply
method. The class provides operator bool() to check whether the reply
succeeded (pointer is not null) and operator->() to directly access the
reply pointer.
