Summary:
So far KWin did not re-evaluate the window rules when the Client's
window class changes. Window class is the main (static) feature the rule
selection is based on. For dynamic changing mapping features like caption
KWin does re-evaluate the rules.
The reason for KWin to not evaluate when the class changes is that KWin
expects the class not to change. From ICCCM section 4.1.2.5:
> This property must be present when the window leaves the Withdrawn
> state and may be changed only while the window is in the Withdrawn
> state. Window managers may examine the property only when they start
> up and when the window leaves the Withdrawn state, but there should be
> no need for a client to change its state dynamically.
Unfortunately there are prominent applications such as Spotify which
violate this rule and do change the window class dynamically. While this
is a clear ICCCM violation there is nothing which really forbids it (may
not != must not) and nothing which forbids KWin to react on changes.
As also libtaskmanager started to react on it, it makes sense to also
hook up the required bits for window rules. After all KWin detects
changes to the window class for some time already and has the
functionality to evaluate the rules. So all there is, is one connect
which improves the situation for our users, while at the same time it
should be rather risk free. If a setup window rule breaks after this
change it's due to the client not being ICCCM compliant.
Test Plan:
I don't use any of the affected applications, so it's only
tested with the new added unit test.

This reverts commit 8a2a00a4ca.
It was likely wrongly pushed before the KWayland changes, so it won't
compile.
Feel free to reinstate it once the dependent changes (KWayland) are in.

Summary:
So far window rule specific functionality was only implemented in Client
and in ShellClient there was only a dummy implementation. This change
moves the client_rules member variable from Client to AbstractClient.
Areas which would not compile anymore are adjusted.
This is a first step to get window rule support for Wayland windows.

This is what 7ce380497f tried to do (and got reverted by my previous commit).
The approach is basically the same, just temporarily fake that the window
is on all activities, thus it will be temporarily shown for the session
interact, but this time there seem to be no broken side-effects (and if there
are, they'll be at least limited to activities and not break virtual desktops).
Also, 'needsSessionInteract' was a misnomer - it certainly wasn't set for all
windows that needed session interaction. Just call it what it really is.
Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D5614
The member variable is not what determines which desktop a window is on,
it's more like caching the state. Therefore trying to fake a new value
eventually leads to inconsistencies, e.g. having KWrite open with unsaved
changes on inactive desktop results in the window ending up on all desktops
after session save (both successful and cancelled).
This pretty much reverts the whole 7ce380497f that introduced this and also
a0a976885c that tried to fix some of the problems resulting from it.
The original problem of session saving of windows of inactive activities still
remains, to be fixed by another commit.

This brings back global menu support in KWin.
The DBusMenu infrastructure is different that we just read the DBus service name and
menu object path from the windows rather than passing around window IDs on DBus which
won't work on Wayland.

Summary:
KWindowSystem provides a KDE specific property for the desktop file
name. This allows KWin to take the icon from the desktop file. The
advantage from the desktop file is that KWin normally gets higher
resolution icons than provided through the xproperty based icons used
previously. If the desktop file does not provide an icon name, KWin
falls back to the previous implementation.
As on Wayland the icon is taken from the desktop file name already the
code for X11 and Wayland is merged in AbstractClient. Also to the
PlasmaWindowInterface the appId is taken from the new desktop file
instead of the resourceName. Due to that for Xwayland windows where KWin
knows the desktop file name it can be passed to PlasmaWindowInterface.
This allows e.g. the task manager to better map the windows to
applications and provide better icons. Also it means that icons do not
need to be passed as bitmap data to the clients.
Test Plan:
Verified that icon is taking from desktop file if provided and
from X property if not provided and that Wayland windows still have icon.

Summary:
Plasmashell's desktop windows are RGBA which forces the compositor to
perform blending and render the background. That is absolutely pointless
as there is no window behind the desktop window it could blend to. All it
does is destroying KWin's more optimized code path and forcing additional
rendering which will never be visible (including shader push/pop).
With this change KWin forces desktop windows (both X11 and Wayland) to
be considered as opaque by setting the depth to 24. Thus blending is
disabled and the background is not rendered.
Test Plan:
Verified with apitrace that KWin goes in the opaque rendering
path for desktop windows.

AbstractClient::mainClients is virtual and overriden in Client,
allMainClients has only a common implementation in AbstractClient.
In activation.cpp we still need one case where a temporary ClientList
needs to be constructed. Once transients are fully migrated that should
be removable again.
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.

At the same time the functionality for the "original_skip_taskbar" is
splitted out. This removes the weird API with two boolean arguments to
the set method. Instead there is a dedicated method for the orignal
skip taskbar state which delegates to regular skipTaksbar.
... not them becoming visible.
Latter doesn't work for most cases (unminimizing)
for obvious reasons (they're not minimized) and
when a new window is mapped, the focus stealing
prevention seems a good filter
(if it's not good enough to gain the focus,
it's not good enough to break the state either)

This is an alternative approach suggested by the
NETWM spec.
The advantage is, that windows are not minimized
at all what apparently lead to some confusion
about the nature of the mode (which was abused
to tidy up) and a secret config key to allow for
that unrelated behavior.
Instead the ShowDesktopIsMinimizeAll key is removed
and replaced by a dedicated script + shortcut.
Bonus: less code to remember "minimized" windows =)
Adapt to API changes introduced by b62e8888cd39301e00ad98dfe791fa66676408fb.
It adds DecoratedClient::color(group, role) for getting colors that are
not included in QPalette. Breeze used to read these colors from
kdeglobals, breaking per window color schemes. KWin now handles reading
these colors along with QPalette loading with DecorationPalette.

A wrapper class for MotifHints is added to xcbutils. This class manages
the information about the read Motif hints, so that Client doesn't need
to have a copy of the read states.
The class is designed in a way that during Client::manage we get rid of
another roundtrip.

Xcb::GeometryHints is a convenient wrapper around the size hints
as described in ICCCM combined with the sanity checks so far applied
by KWin after reading the property.
Instead of accessing the members of the property structure, we are
now using the convenience methods.
During ::manage no further actions are triggered when reading the
size hints. Only when they are read later on the previous checks
are applied. During ::manage they can be ignored as it had a dedicated
isManaged check.
The method ::resizeWithCheck got a new argument of type xcb_gravity_t
which defaults to 0. This is needed from ::configureRequest which so
far temporarily changed the xSizeHints structure. By passing as an
argument this is no longer needed.
REVIEW: 122185
First part (fetch) just creates the Xcb::Property while the
second part (read) reads the property. This allows to better
schedule the commands in Client::manage to reduce the number of
roundtrips. This reduces the time spent for fetching the client
leader property by about half a millisecond on my system.
We are only using the UrgencyHint, InputHint and GroupLeader from
WMHints. Those are provided by NETWinInfo, so we can use the
functionality provided by NETWinInfo instead of calling XGetWMHints.

NOTE: this is not working completely yet, lots of code is still ifdefed
other parts are still broken.
The main difference for the new decoration API is that it is neither
QWidget nor QWindow based. It's just a QObject which processes input
events and has a paint method to render the decoration. This means all
the workarounds for the QWidget interception are removed. Also the paint
redirector is removed. Instead each compositor has now its own renderer
which can be optimized for the specific case. E.g. the OpenGL compositor
renders to a scratch image which gets copied into the combined texture,
the XRender compositor copies into the XPixmaps.
Input events are also changed. The events are composed into QMouseEvents
and passed through the decoration, which might accept them. If they are
not accpted we assume that it's a press on the decoration area allowing
us to resize/move the window. Input events are not completely working
yet, e.g. wheel events are not yet processed and double click on deco
is not yet working.
Overall KDecoration2 is way more stateful and KWin core needs more
adjustments for it. E.g. borders are allowed to be disabled at any time.
