Summary:
As described in https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-57714 exposing a
QWidget as a context item to QtQuick can crash. Especially as the
engine's context property gets deleted whilst deleting the parent item.
This patch reworks the code so that the models are exposed to QML
directly rather than going through a QWidget.
CCBUG: 373628
Test Plan:
Pressing back whilst in the decoration KCM used to crash every time, now it doesn't.
I still have the buttons.

Summary:
as the plasmapkg2 utility is dead, scripts and tabboxes couldn't
be installed anymore, as plasmapkg2 was launched with an hardcoded
package type (and had a bunch of custom code for it)
and no packagestructure for the relevant package types existed.
the port of scripts and tabboxes to kpackage in kwin is quite
incomplete and somewhat strange (given the fact that was started by
looking manually for the file as it couldn't link to libplasma)
this makes things a bit better as now scripts and tabboxes have an actual
package structure, making it installable by kpackagetool5.
in the future, the port should be completed and replace all the manual lookup
of files with package::filePath as it should work now given that valid
structures exist
BUG:374766
Test Plan:
tabbox plugins and kwin scripts can be installed from knewstuff
again and can be successfully loaded

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:
Currently the configure button is aligned to the win decoration in the
background. This is bound to 40 - the inactive decorations shadow.
This means the configure button ends up in different places across each
item,
looking a bit weird and potentially not even on top of the right
delegate.
This patch aligns the configure button relative to the overall delegate
so that it's in the same place on every item

BUG: 372685
Summary:
The feature has always been considered experimental. Unfortunately it is
completely unmaintained and hasn't seen any commits in years. It
requires kolor-manager to function, but that has not seen a release
based on frameworks yet. This makes it difficult to maintain. In fact I
have never been able from the introduction till now to setup a color
corrected system. One needs kolor-manager and oyranos and especially the
latter is hardly available on any linux distribution (e.g. not on the
Debian/Ubuntu systems).
Due to being unmaintained color correction in KWin did not keep up with
recent changes. Neither did it see any updates during the xlib->xcb
port, nor during the Wayland port. Especially the Wayland port with the
rendering changes make it unlikely to function correctly. E.g. Wayland
introduced a proper per-screen rendering, while color correction did a
"fake" per screen rendering. How that is going to work in combination is
something nobody ever tried. Now after the introduction of proper
per-screen rendering the solution would be to port color correction to
the new api, but that never happened.
Color correction also modified the shaders, but a newer shader API got
introduced some time ago. Whether the color correction shader support
that or not, is unknown to me. Also which shader language versions are
supported. I know it was based on 3d texture support, which back on
introduction was partially lacking in OpenGL ES. Nowadays that changed,
but color correction didn't update.
Last but not least it is completely X11 based and there is no work on
how to make it work with Wayland.
Given all the problems, especially the fact that it is unmaintained and
cannot be setup on my system, means to me that the only solution is to
remove it.
I'm open to having it reintroduced in future, but only if the
availability on Linux distributions gets addressed before. As long as
major linux distributions do not ship this feature, it should not be in
KWin. Given that I must say that it was a mistake to add it in the first
place and I need to point out that I was against the merge back then.

Summary:
And finally nothing inside libkwineffects, libkwinglutils,
libkwinxrenderutils and kwineffect and kwin core uses KWin::display.
We are finally XLib free!
This change drops KWin::display and removes the include to QX11Info from
kwinglobals.h. And the libraries no longer need to link X11Extras. Due
to that removal a few seeming unrelated changes are required to add the
include where needed and linkage to X11Extras.
The biggest change is to x11 platform plugin which still needs the
display and caches it in the Platform and passes it to various places in
a way that the code doesn't need to be adjusted.

Summary:
On Wayland compositing is required. It doesn't make any sense to offer
the user to disable the compositor or to allow windows to block
compositing.
The Compositor DBus interface gains a new property whether the platform
requires compositing. This is queried by the compositing kcm and based
on that the two mentioned options get hidden and not stored to config
file.
Test Plan: Opened the KCM on Wayland

Summary:
From feedback we got it seems that not all users agree to games and
other applications blocking compositing. Some users prefer to have
compositing always on even if this gives a small performance penelity.
This change introduces a dedicated config option to specify whether games
are allowed to block compositing. By default this option is enabled.
The setting can be overwritten with a window specific rule. So usecases
like all windows except this very specific one are supported.
In the user interface the config option is shown where previously the
unredirect fullscreen option was shown.
Test Plan:
Run a game which should block compositing, verified it blocks.
Changed the setting, run the game again, verified it doesn't block. And
once more for with allowing to block.

At the same time the xinput2 integration is split out of X11Cursor
and made a standalone part of the platform plugin. XInput integration
is nowadays not only used by the cursor position polling, but also
for modifier only shortcuts.
By splitting it out the modifier shortcuts start to work also when
one doesn't have anything requesting a mouse position polling.
This also simplifies the conditional builds: xinput integration is
only included if we have support for it at compile time without having
to have many ifdefs in the cursor implementation. For the inclusion of
cursor in the kcmkwin this also removes all the ifdefs.
The key events are only requested if we have xinput 2.1. Otherwise we
would not get all raw events if the input device gets grabbed.

By default the InputRedirectionCursor is created and only the X11
standalone platform creates the X11 specific cursor.
This is a preparation step for moving the X11 specific cursor
implementation into the x11standalone platform plugin.

Now that we have a dedicated dbus call to show the application launcher

Summary:
Rational: unredirect fullscreen windows is a weird beast. It's intended
to make fullscreen windows "faster" by not compositing that screen. But
that doesn't really work as KWin jumps out of that condition pretty
quickly. E.g. whenever a tooltip window is shown. KWin itself has a
better functionality by supporting to block compositing completely.
The complete code was full of hacks around it to try to ensure that
things don't break.
Overall unredirect fullscreen has always been the odd one. We had it
because a compositor needs to have it, but it never got truly integrated.
E.g. effects don't interact with it properly so that some things randomly
work, others don't. Will it trigger the screenedge, probably yes, but
will it show the highlight: properly no.
By removing the functionality we finally acknowledge that this mode is
not maintained and has not been maintained for years and that we do not
intend to support it better in future. Over the years we tried to make
it more and more hidden: it's disabled for Intel GPUs, because it used
to crash KWin. It's marked as an "expert" option, etc.
It's clearly something we tried to hide from the user that it exists.
For Wayland the whole unredirect infrastructure doesn't make sense
either. There is no such thing as "unredirecting". We might make use
of passing buffers directly to the underlying stack, but that will be
done automatically when we know it can be done, not by some magic is
this a window of specific size.
Test Plan:
Compiles, cannot really test as I am an Intel user who never
had that working.

Summary:
The selection of whether GLX or EGL should be used doesn't work in
practice due to the following reasons:
* Intel/EGL/X11 results in rendering errors
* NVIDIA still doesn't support EGL
* OpenGLES forces to EGL (combobox only one entry)
* Wayland forces to EGL (combobox only one entry)
Offering the selection only offers the user a way to destroy the
system. We get too many bug reports about rendering errors and we
get too many complaints about this not working properly on social
media. E.g.: "The Meh: EGL mode causes bugs in the launcher"
The configuration interface showed a warning when selecting it, but
apparently users ignore warnings like "might be broken". If that's the
case let's better remove the option.
If users really want this they can still enable it manually through
editing the config file or through the env variable.
Change intended for Plasma/5.7 branch - I'm sick of users complaining
about it!
