Summary:
Currently code base of kwin can be viewed as two pieces. One is very
ancient, and the other one is more modern, which uses new C++ features.
The main problem with the ancient code is that it was written before
C++11 era. So, no override or final keywords, lambdas, etc.
Quite recently, KDE compiler settings were changed to show a warning if
a virtual method has missing override keyword. As you might have already
guessed, this fired back at us because of that ancient code. We had
about 500 new compiler warnings.
A "solution" was proposed to that problem - disable -Wno-suggest-override
and the other similar warning for clang. It's hard to call a solution
because those warnings are disabled not only for the old code, but also
for new. This is not what we want!
The main argument for not actually fixing the problem was that git
history will be screwed as well because of human factor. While good git
history is a very important thing, we should not go crazy about it and
block every change that somehow alters git history. git blame allows to
specify starting revision for a reason.
The other argument (human factor) can be easily solved by using tools
such as clang-tidy. clang-tidy is a clang-based linter for C++. It can
be used for various things, e.g. fixing coding style(e.g. add missing
braces to if statements, readability-braces-around-statements check),
or in our case add missing override keywords.
Test Plan: Compiles.

Summary:
The dialog invoked through user actions menu takes the internal uuid as
command line argument which allows to query the required information
from KWin instead of using X11.
This allows to enable the system for Wayland windows.
In order to replace the usage of ClientMachine in the rules dialog the
dbus interface is extended by a value whether the window is on the
localhost. This is exposed through a virtual method on toplevel which is
overridden in ShellClient and there always returning true.
Test Plan: Run a nested Wayland and opened the dialog on a wayland window

Summary:
This call is added for the window rules kcm which has a detect
functionality. As that detect functionality cannot query any Wayland
windows we need to have some functionality in KWin core. Furthermore
this allows to simplify the code in the kcm as all the custom X11
interaction can be removed. KWin internally has the functionality to
find a window at a given position.
From a security perspective adding this dbus method is fine as the user
stays in control of the functionality. It requires active click to
select a window.
The new dbus call is already used in the rules kcm replacing the
X11 based detect functionality. That a detect is now able to get
information for both X11 and Wayland windows. So far only X11 windows
on X11 were supported. So this fills an important gap in the Wayland
offerings. It should now be possible to create rules for Wayland
windows (though may not be fully functional).
Test Plan: Run the kwin_rules_dialog and it detected the window correctly

Summary:
The activities combobox content is loaded asynchronously,
we are storing the configured value for the window rule
until the activity list is loaded into the combo box.
And then, we set that item as the current one in the combo.

This allows to pin the focus on certain window as well
as to more easily give it away on others (typically launchers)

KActivities API is not synchronous anymore. If we want to retrieve
the activities, we should do it when we actually get the data.
We are listening to the service status changes and activity list changes.

and btw. replace legacy "ignoreposition" by "ignoregeometry"
this will allow to use "apply initially" as "force" used to act
(ignore position on placement) and "force" to prevent clients
from reconfiguring themselves (to not break a tabgroup or to just
not be annoying)

As discussed on the mailinglist [1] the tiling support is
removed from KWin. The main reasons for this step are:
* it is unmaintained
* it is a mode not used by any of the core KWin team
* original developer said at Akademy 2012 that he is not
interested in picking up the work again
* tiling has quite some bugs, e.g. multi screen not supported
* is conflicting with other concepts in KWin, e.g. activities
There is ongoing work to get tiling supported through a KWin
script, which is a preferred way as it does not influence the
existing C++ code base.

- adds the kcm rule option to set the activity - one or all option like
for virtual desktops
- makes the windows obey the rule
- makes the rule enforced even when the user tries to change the
window's activity via the alt+f3 menu

Drawbound was nowadays only used when compositing is disabled.
For the composited case, the drawbound was replaced by the resize
effect and in fact we should always just use the resize effect.

This commit merges the kwin-tiling branch. Ideally it shouldn't break anything and add a few features ;-)
It was applied as a patch. Do not attempt to merge the branch directly, it has a few issues.
This feature is currently experimental, although it hasn't crashed in quite a long time. It lacks some features and probably leaks some memory. Fixes will be on the way.

that's not exact multiple of its resize increments. Selecting obeying
strict geometry in window-specific settings makes KWin avoid this.
Maximization then doesn't work very well indeed, but one cannot please
everybody, and the bug is in xterm after all.
