On X11, it creates a dead pixel on the left edge which interferes with
left panels, the left-nost widget on bottom and top panels, and scroll
events on the left-most pixel in various apps.
It works properly on Wayland, but unfortunately turning it off by
default only on X11 but not Wayland is not easily doable. So let's turn
it off by default everywhere.

This change replaces the remaining usages of the old connect syntax with
the new connect syntax.
Unfortunately, there are still places where we have to use SIGNAL() and
SLOT() macros, for example the stuff that deals with d-bus business.
Clazy was used to create this change. There were a few cases that needed
manual intervention, the majority of those cases were about resolving
ambiguity caused by overloaded signals.
The main advantage of SPDX license identifiers over the traditional
license headers is that it's more difficult to overlook inappropriate
licenses for kwin, for example GPL 3. We also don't have to copy a
lot of boilerplate text.
In order to create this change, I ran licensedigger -r -c from the
toplevel source directory.

Summary:
Qt has its own thing where a type might also have corresponding list
alias, e.g. QObject and QObjectList, QWidget and QWidgetList. I don't
know why Qt does that, maybe for some historical reasons, but what
matters is that we copy this pattern here in KWin. While this pattern
might be useful with some long list types, for example
QList<QWeakPointer<TabBoxClient>> TabBoxClientList
in general, it causes more harm than good. For example, we've got two
new client types, do we need corresponding list typedefs for them? If
no, why do we have ClientList and so on?
Another problem with these typedefs is that you need to include utils.h
header in order to use them. A better way to handle such things is to
just forward declare a client class (if that's possible) and use it
directly with QList or QVector. This way translation units don't get
"bloated" with utils.h stuff for no apparent reason.
So, in order to make code more consistent and easier to follow, this
change drops some of our custom typedefs. Namely ConstClientList,
ClientList, DeletedList, UnmanagedList, ToplevelList, and GroupList.
Test Plan: Compiles.

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.
Test Plan: Compiles, the test suite is still green.

Summary:
So far wayland was used by internal clients to submit raster buffers
and position themselves on the screen. While we didn't have issues with
submitting raster buffers, there were some problems with positioning
task switchers. Mostly, because we had effectively two paths that may
alter geometry.
A better approach to deal with internal clients is to let our QPA use
kwin core api directly. This way we can eliminate unnecessary roundtrips
as well make geometry handling much easier and comprehensible.
The last missing piece is shadows. Both Plasma::Dialog and Breeze widget
style use platform-specific APIs to set and unset shadows. We need to
add shadows API to KWindowSystem. Even though some internal clients lack
drop-shadows at the moment, I don't consider it to be a blocker. We can
add shadows back later on.

Because KWin is a very old project, we use three kinds of null pointer
literals: 0, NULL, and nullptr. Since C++11, it's recommended to use
nullptr keyword.
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

add unrelated changes to their patches, e.g. converting NULL to nullptr).

Summary:
So far the ThumbnailItem in TabBox mode used the window id for finding
the window it should render a thumbnail on. In the Wayland world this is
not unique. The window id could be either an X11 window or a wayland
window. We don't guarantee that there are no conflicting ids.
With the internal id we have a way to properly identify the windows, so
this element should use them.
To support this the property changed the type to QUuid and the
clientmodel also provides the QUuid. As in TabBox the way to get the
window is through the model this should be compatible for all themes.
It's tested and verified with the Breeze switcher.
For declarative KWin scripts the ThumbnailItem also provides the
AbstractClient as a property, so there should not be any script which
uses wid. If it does, this could break, but well the script should use
the intended API.

Summary:
Commit 5d9027b110 introduced a regression in TabBox by using the generic
framework inside KWin to test for same application. What I did not
consider was that the code in TabBox was "broken by design". It didn't
use the generic check as that is too strict and considers windows from
different processes as not belonging to the same application. But this
is not wanted in the case of TabBox.
On the other hand the change itself is an improvement to also support
Wayland in a better way and not have special handling situations. Thus
just reverting would not help.
Instead this change addresses the problem by extending the internal API
and to allow more adjustements. So far there was already an
"active_hack" boolean flag. This is extended to proper flags with an
additional flag to allow cross application checks.
The checks in Client which would filter out different applications check
for this flag and are skipped if set. In addition ShellClient also adds
support for this flag and compares for the desktop file name.
Thus we get in TabBox the same behavior as before with the advantage of
having a better shared code base working on both X11 and Wayland.

when we have established the TabBox grab. Likewise we can destroy the
filter again when releasing the TabBox grab. So it's much more
encapsulated now.

Summary:
There is a special mode in TabBox which is the noModifierGrab mode. This
is Alt+Tab active without a modifier being hold. This mode is entered
when being activated through screen edges (either pointer or touch). So
far this was not exposed to QtQuick and thus one could not end the mode
using pointer or touch. It is possible to select another window, but not
to activate it. That required the press of a keyboard key.
This setup is rather unfortunate. By exposing the mode to QtQuick we can
react from QtQuick side to it and invoke already exposed functionality to
select and item and directly activate it - existing left-over from the
Plasma Active window switcher.

Summary:
So far TabBox used highlight windows by passing window ids around through
an X property. This doesn't work on Wayland where we don't have window
ids for our TabBox and the Wayland windows.
This change introduces a new Effect::Feature for HighlightWindows which
the HighlightWindowsEffect provides. The EffectsHandlerImpl has a new
method to highlightWindows which it delegates to that effect if it is
loaded by invoking a new performFeature method.
The TabBoxHandler now passes the highlighting to the effects system
instead of updating the x11 property. Thus this works on Wayland and
at the same time improves the X11 side by no longer having to go through
the property protocol.
Test Plan: Verified that Alt+Tab highlights the windows on Wayland correctly.

Summary:
Toplevel::window() is the actual X11 window. This makes it difficult
to use as the generic identifier for both X11 and Wayland. The Wayland
ShellClient already had a windowId() which is now added to Toplevel as
a virtual method. On X11 (Toplevel default) it returns the window().
The method window() now returns XCB_WINDOW_NONE for classes without
the Toplevel::m_client, such as ShellClient. Thus it allows to properly
check whether we are on Wayland or X11.
The code is adjusted to use windowId where a generic id is needed and
to properly check whether the window is valid before using it where
a window() is used.
This also fixes at least one additional unknown issue in
Workspace::setActiveClient
where the windowId of a Wayland client was passed to X11.

The TabBox implements methods for those events and performs same
logic as on X11. Click outside of TabBox closes. If the event is on
the TabBox we don't filter the event out and let the internal filter
forward the event.
By using QWindow we can also find the TabBox window on Wayland where
the winId is not really helpful.
This also changes the elevation from Unamanged to Toplevel, so that
it is no longer X11 specific.
Result: TabBox stays on top of all windows also on Wayland.
This is a temporary workaround for bug 349992 which causes freezes
during startup as kwin and kamd dead lock each other on DBus.
To workaround we don't call Activities::create and check in every
usage of Activities::self() whether the pointer is valid.
As a result kwin_wayland now starts pretty fast.
CCBUG: 349992
The change is mostly straight forward. Effects are straight forward
adjusted. Client::findModal is moved up, this causes still a few
dynamic_casts to Client. Mostly because Workspace::activateClient still
operates on Client.
