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:
There is a regression in WindowBasedEdge::soStopApproaching. Due to
only operate when the edge activates for pointer it is possible that
the cursor polling stays active. Explaining the situation:
1. Activate switch desktop when moving window
2. Start moving a window
3. Move mouse into the approach geometry
-> doStartApproaching activates as we are moving a window
4. stop moving window
-> doStopApproaching early exits as the position does not activate for
pointer any more - we are not moving a window
-> cursor polling is still connected and whenever mouse enters edge
approaching is started
The analysis shows that the check whether activates for pointer is wrong
in the case of stop approaching. If the edge started to approach, we also
need to stop approaching.
This change addresses the problem by turning the check into whether the
connection for cursor position update is set.
This is the third bug fix to the X11 screen edge handling after
introducing touch screen edges. This needs more manual testing by
everybody in the Plasma team who is still using X11.

Summary:
Each Edge creates a SwipeGesture for touch activation. The swipe needs to
be a single finger starting from the edge into the screen for at least
20 %. The SwipeGesture and GestureRecognizer is extended to support the
use cases of the touch screen edge swipe.
New features supported by the gesture system are:
* minimum and maximum position
* a minimum delta for the swipe
* progress signal based on the minimum delta
* starting a swipe with a start point
The Edge has the progress signal connected to its approach signal, thus
visual feedback is provided through the screen edge effect.
The screen edge system supports touch only for the edges (corners are
too difficult to activate on touch screens). At the moment the following
features are supported:
* screen edge show/raise of windows (e.g. auto hidden panels)
* trigger the configured action
* trigger the configured callback function (e.g. script)
In future it might make sense to add a touch specific configuration
action to support different actions for screen edges activated by mouse
and touch.
BUG: 370323
Test Plan:
configured a screen edge and triggered through touch,
added an auto-hiding panel and triggered through touch

Removes a diversion between X11 and Wayland. The base class Platform
creates an instance of class Edge with plugin implementations being
able to create a different type.
The X11StandalonePlugin does that and creates a WindowBasedEdge. For
this the implementation of WindowBasedEdge is moved from screenedges
into the plugin.
Unfortunately an ifdef is needed to make the screenedge test still
work as expected. This should be improved in future, e.g. have a good
way to load the platform plugin from the tests.
