When the output layout changes, the Workspace is going to update the
struts and then go through every window and see whether it should be
moved or resized.
On the other hand, the layer shell windows react to output changes on
a timer. Furthermore, it's not synchronized with the workspace rearranging
the managed windows. It means that when Workspace::desktopResized() runs,
the panel struts can be slightly outdated, i.e.
- An output layout change occurs
- Workspace::desktopResized() is called but the struts can be wrong
- some time later, LayerShellV1Integration::rearrange is called, it
fixes layer shell window geometries and struts
- after the layer shell integration has finished rearranging the
layer shell windows, it calls Workspace::desktopResized(), but the
damage had already been caused
With the proposed change, the Workspace and the LayerShellV1Integration
will rearrange the windows in sync.

Now that we have Wayland around, there's a whole branch of dependencies
that shouldn't be necessary anymore.
This allows to build KWin without all of it, allowing us to have a much
more compact alignment for cases where all the legacy software isn't
necessary anymore.
Bundle KWindowSystem X11-specific headers into it too, since it's part
of the same process.

If the client is slow, kwin can receive _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE requests
after user has released mouse buttons. Ideally, the window manager
should refuse starting an interactive move/resize operation in such a
case so it's still possible to finish moving or resizing the window
by releasing mouse buttons.
Strict geometry disables certain user activites; full screen requests
and only sending configure events at sizes the client claims to support.
This was added as a workaround for xterm in 19 years ago. It's a client
side bug as applications can still choose to ignore the configure event,
so kwin shouldn't have to sanitise them in advance. xterm seems to have
fixed it's bug, and pragmatically we know not all window managers
perform these checks so most clients should not be relying on it.
On Wayland this additional check is proving problematic, the handling of
scaling especially fractional scaling is hitting cases where it's better
to always ask the client to do what kwin wants.
Tests that refer to sizeIncrements are dropped as they are only used in
the strict geometry passes which is being obsoleted. Resizing in general
is still tested.

NETWM forces a weird X11 dependency on KWin that doesn't necessarily
match what we want to do. Instead we decouple such a central class in
KWin like it's Window from KWindowSystem X11 support.

SeatInterface currently has a separation of kwin's focus scope to
pointer input with early return guards in notifyPointerEnter and
notifyPointerLeave where clients don't get pointer events.
However we don't update the initial state when a drag is started, this
patch notifies sends a pointer leave to the new drag target before the
data_device enter so things are consistent.
This also brings it in line with Weston and Mutter.
notifyPointerLeave has it's early return removed as for wayland windows
as we know nothing will have pointer focus.
There is a mix of cursor shape names from the CSS W3C specification and
non-spec ones, which is confusing when deciding what cursor shapes need
aliases in Cursor::cursorAlternativeNames().
The current implementation of the `<N>` suffix is still buggy and its
benefits are doubtful. One could argue that visual aids such as window
thumbnails or highlighting the windows are better. On its own, these
numbers don't have strong connections to the windows and can change on
a whim.
This was just done because of the wrong assumption that displays needed that
to show the full native gamut. That turned out to be an amdgpu bug though; with
that fixed, most of the 0-100% range is wildly oversaturated.
To make the slider more intuitive, this changes the sdr gamut wideness to instead
interpolate to the native display primaries as indicated by the EDID.
At the moment, the desktop layout in _NET_DESKTOP_LAYOUT overwrites new
desktop layout with outdated information. This happens because kwin tries
to honor the desktop layout set by the pager. However, kwin itself
already acts as the pager. The pager applet in plasma doesn't attempt to
maintain _NET_DESKTOP_LAYOUT with proper values.
On the other hand, kwin trying to both update and also sync its state to
_NET_DESKTOP_LAYOUT and _NET_DESKTOP_NAMES has created a series of
issues, like lockups or rendering glitches.
Given that the window manager can ignore these properties, and the fact
that kwin already does act like a pager, this patch makes kwin ignore
external updates to _NET_DESKTOP_LAYOUT and _NET_DESKTOP_NAMES.
In order to modify the desktop layout on X11, use the dbus api. On
Wayland, either the dbus api or the virtual desktop wayland protocol.

A window is added to the workspace when it's mapped. It's assumed that
the first Window::windowShown signal indicates that. But it's not
entirely true. For example, if setHidden(false); setHidden(true); are
called in succession, the window will be marked as ready for painting
even though it isn't.
The Window::readyForPaintingChanged() signal fixes that. It's emitted
when the window is actually mapped.
At the moment, if the workspace extends or shrinks by an output, the
hidden panel will be shown. It doesn't make sense in all cases.
Furthermore, no screen edge will be reserved if the layer surface has
some margins.
To address that, allow "floating" panels reserve screen edges and also
make kwin try harder to preserve window edges if the output layout
changes.
CCBUG: 448420
The new window rule allows to overwrite the stack layer. It can be
useful on wayland to force picture-in-picture surfaces (which are
xdg-toplevels at the moment) to be placed above fullscreen windows.
Keep above flag is unsuitable because fullscreen windows are placed
higher "above" windows.
CCBUG: 466016
Currently there is a 150ms delay before screen edge actions and
hotcorners are triggered; the cursor has to spend that much time there
before they'll activate. This is good for preventing accidental
activations, but also prevents and delays deliberate activations, which
are likely to be more annoying for the user.
To alleviate this, the delay is reduced to 75ms, which still prevents
most of the accidental activations in my testing, while making
deliberate activations faster and easier.
If the user wants to move a tiled window but changes their mind and tiles the window back to the previous
position, quickTileGeometryRestore() will return an error value beacause m_electricMaximizing is true and
the m_electricGeometryRestore is the same as the geometry of the window in the last tiled mode.
Now the geometry restore of the tiled window is true when starting interactive move, so we no longer need
to precompute it.
Changes for testQuickTilingPointerMove:
We need to attach a new image after the tiling window, so that updateElectricGeometryRestore can obtain
the same framegeometry as the framegeometry obtained during actual runtime.
Now testQuickTilingPointerMove can detect the error：If the user wants to move a tiled window but changes
their mind and tiles the window back to the previous position, quickTileGeometryRestore() will return an
error value beacause m_electricMaximizing is true and the m_electricGeometryRestore is the same as the
geometry of the window in the last tiled mode.

Currently when input panel is using overlay mode and the cursor rectangle
is below or above the screen area, the input panel may be placed off the
screen. The change ensure it is always placed within the screen area
using similar math like xdg_popup's slide_y constrain.
The wayland spec is not quite clear about the transforms, but the buffer
transform indicates a transform from wl_surface to wl_buffer or compositor
global coordinate space to composited buffer.
On the other hand, SurfaceItem assumes that the order is vice versa.
`flip-y | rotate-N` transforms are equivalent to `flip-x | rotate-N`.
However, it is not intuitive to express transforms that flip the y axis
via flip-x transforms. This change adds convenience aliases to improve
code readability and keep code intuitive, which is going to be needed in
order to drop TextureTransforms flags.
These can be useful in case a QRect needs to be mapped. One could
convert the QRect into a QRectF and then back to QRect, but given that
these conversion helpers are present in rendering hot paths, it would
be great to be more efficient and also potentially loosing precision
because of floating point arithmetic.
Makes it possible to easily target things in a window near your panel edge,

The `m_client` condition this MR removes appears to have been added solely to make autohiding panels appear instantly. See c4140d6f4e.

Instead of killing the window without asking, show the kill prompt
like it's done for X11 windows.
The window in question is exported through XDG foreign so the kill
helper can parent itself to it, and an activation token is also provided.
Also, the more contemporary desktop file name is now used for
identification rather than window class.
A no-display desktop file is installed for the kill helper so that it
can get a proper window icon and suppress startup notification.
This makes it consistent with the timeout used on X11.
The current ping timeout was also generally quite short, causing apps
to desaturate for brief moments when they were busy e.g. starting up
or loading large files.
Bouce keys suppresses additional key presses during a given interval

This allows KWin to securely identify the client for a given connection,
without relying on the process name.
This patch does not do anything meaningful with the application ID other
than store it.
This first version does not support kwin restarts, it can come
afterwards.
Testing done:
With latest flatpak, running `WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 flatpak run org.telegram.desktop |& grep security`
shows that flatpak itself bound the security context, and the client did not see it advertised.

By default, hyper keys are interpreted as meta keys. However, due to
a Qt bug, it had been incorrectly mapped.
Commit b45b9090c3b66d541f57f8d049c22247f8c115ca in qtbase repo fixed it,
so the test needs adjustments.
Window::acceptsFocus() is not taken into account when a window is
activated using Workspace::activateWindow(). The main reason is because
of different input models on X11.
Instead, Window::takeFocus() should check itself if the window accepts
focus.
While applications are still restricted to sRGB, this allows working on sRGB

libkwineffects was introduced when kwin used to be an executable. It
provided an api to implement effects and shielded from the technical
quirks in kwin.
Over the time, kwin internals had been split and abstractions were
refactored so they can be consumed in scripts or plugins. Besides that,
new ways to implement extensions have been introduced, which use
kwin's internal abstractions.
On the other hand, effects continue using libkwineffects specific apis.
This has a few issues: qtquick effects use both apis and it bites us,
duplicating same apis.
The best solution so far is to merge libkwineffects with libkwin, and
replace libkwineffects abstractions with libkwin abstractions, e.g.
EffectScreen -> Output, etc. This change takes care of adjusting libs.
Obviously, the main disadvantage of doing so is that binary effects
have to be recompiled every time new libkwin is released. But it's
already the case with libkwineffects too.
Some apps, notably Tablet KCM, will rebind the tablet interface and consume all events that should be sent to the GUI toolkit.
This commit sends events to every consumer and also stores the latest cursor indexed by wl_client instead of wl_resource.

This makes the api of EffectWindow more similar to the api of Window. It
also makes more sense to keep such signals in EffectWindow. In the future,
the effect window can be dropped in favor of the window.
Instead of an external service (like KScreen) storing and restoring output configurations,
with this commit KWin takes over that responsibility. This allows it to, among other things,
generate appropriate configs for new sets of outputs immediately, and take KWin-internal information
about outputs into account when generating them.

At the moment, the wayland compositor has to handle the case of having
no workspace. This should be unnecessary and it creates a pesky cycling
dependency between Workspace and Compositor.
Given that the Workspace acts more like a container and kwin starts
accepting client connections after starting compositing, it's possible
to create the Workspace earlier and simplify the start() function a bit.
There's "major" and "minor" defines that can get implicitly included, for
example with musl libc. To prevent that from breaking compilation, rename
the methods
In many cases it's irrelevant, what we care about is whether given effect
is loaded and performs its function. So remove these paranoid checks
except the tests where it's important to use OpenGL compositing.
Instead, creating contexts that miss these features should fail directly,
making KWin fall back to software rendering.
While this commit also drops workarounds for broken drivers that do software
emulation for features we need, such workarounds belong into these drivers and
the user can still manually turn off compositing if needed.
Currently when we move the mouse the one render loop triggers a repaint.
When the cursor layer needs a new update we end up in the compositor
repainting the main content.
Even though painting should mostly no-op it still goes through all
existing items and effects to collect damage, still potentially making
the GL context current which could stall. A waste when we know we
haven't got anything to do. It's enough to cause noticable mouse lag on
some hardware.

Ensures that e.g. context menus move about with their parents when they
get moved around.
However, as per spec don't re-constrain the window when its positioner
is non-reactive. This change calculates the offset from its parent window
once initially and places the window relative to that whenever the parent
moves.
Only when the positioner is reactive, will it recalculate the placement fully.

`Placements::placeSmart` searches for an optimal position for windows, attempting to minimize overlap. The core of this algorithm tracks the
client's height and width in `ch` and `cw`, which have been adjusted by -1. This simplifies logic determining the bottom and right points of a
window when you are starting at the top and left points.
However, this decision requires adjusting that number by +1 when doing the opposite: determining the top and left points when you start with
the bottom and right points.
placeSmart cycles through window locations, searching for acceptable nooks and crannies to fit a window in, nicely. It begins by checking
for places to put the top left corner of the window which abut another constraint. If that fails, it then tries to place the bottom right
abutting a constraining feature.
After finding a suitable bottom (or right) location, the top (or left) location must be determined, requiring the -1 adjustment to be undone.
This patch adds that +1 back in.
# The bug it solves
This error can be seen by opening a bunch of windows that are placed using the "Minimal Overlapping" rule. The open space on the screen will be tiled from left to right, and then top to bottom in the windows. Once no more windows can be placed like that, the next window will be placed at the extreme bottom-right corner. However, it will be one pixel too low and one pixel too far to the right---if you try to move the window, it will "snap" to the correct spot.
This single pixel may seem minor or even irrelevant, but when you use the "Present Windows" desktop effect on a multiple-monitor setup, this one pixel will cause the window to show up on both monitors.
Pending buffers for drm planes and crtcs are no longer tracked in the planes
and crtcs themselves, but instead in a DrmCommit object that is used as
the user data for the pageflip handler. This way multiple commits can be
pending at the same time without causing conflicts, and the handling of
pending buffers is simplified as well.
This separate thread submits commits as late as possible, so that until
immediately before vblank the cursor position can still be updated, reducing
its latency and opening the door for more optimizations.
* speeds up incremental builds as changes to a header will not always
need the full mocs_compilation.cpp for all the target's headers rebuild,
while having a moc file sourced into a source file only adds minor
extra costs, due to small own code and the used headers usually
already covered by the source file, being for the same class/struct
* seems to not slow down clean builds, due to empty mocs_compilation.cpp
resulting in those quickly processed, while the minor extra cost of the
sourced moc files does not outweigh that in summary.
Measured times actually improved by some percent points.
(ideally CMake would just skip empty mocs_compilation.cpp & its object
file one day)
* enables compiler to see all methods of a class in same compilation unit
to do some sanity checks
* potentially more inlining in general, due to more in the compilation unit
* allows to keep using more forward declarations in the header, as with the
moc code being sourced into the cpp file there definitions can be ensured
and often are already for the needs of the normal class methods
There are use cases for the headers to be used, e.g. when implementing
wayland-specific workflows from an Effect.
In order to be able to use these, we also need to expose libkwin to be
imported as it carries the interfaces' symbols.

Static plugins being linked with shared libraries doesn't work smoothly.
POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE target property needs to be set for
every such plugin. However, there can be targets that we have no control
over, which need POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE to be set too. Asking such
projects to add this property and them refusing to do so would be
reasonable because kwin's entire static plugin pipeline is weird.
The test framework was made a shared library because kwin build
directory used to get really big (in 10s of gigabytes).
Due to the -fPIC issues, this change makes the test framework a static
lib again. Obviously, this brings back the big build directory problem.
But, it's not as terrible as it used to be. With this change, kwin build
directory is a couple of gigabytes in debug build, which is a lot but
not as bad as it used to be before.
