Currently, the OpenGLBackend and the QPainterBackend have hooks to
indicate the start and the end of compositing cycle, but in both cases,
the hooks have different names. This change fixes that inconsistency.
Summary:
Notify the driver about the parts of the screen that will be repainted.
In some cases this can be benefitial. This is especially useful on lima
and panfrost devices (e.g. pinephone, pinebook, pinebook pro).
Test Plan:
Tested on a pinebook pro with a late mesa version.
Basically I implemented it, then it didn't work and I fixed it.
Maybe next step we want to look into our damage algorithm.
The main advantage of SPDX license identifiers over the traditional
license headers is that it's more difficult to overlook inappropriate
licenses for kwin, for example GPL 3. We also don't have to copy a
lot of boilerplate text.
In order to create this change, I ran licensedigger -r -c from the
toplevel source directory.
Summary:
So far we were following a bit unique and rare doxygen comment style:
/**
* Contents of the comment.
**/
Doxygen comments with this style look balanced and neat, but many people
that contribute to KWin don't follow this style. Instead, they prefer
more traditional doxygen comment style, i.e.
/**
* Contents of the comment.
*/
Reviewing such changes has been a bit frustrating for me (so selfish!)
and for other contributors.
This change switches doxygen comment style in KWin to a more traditional
style. The main reason for doing this is to make code review process easier
for new contributors as well us.

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:
This patch rewrites large parts of the Wayland platform plugin, in order to
facilitate the testing of multi output behavior in nested KWin sessions.
For that a new class WaylandOutput is introduced, which is based on
AbstractOutput and by that shares functionality with our virtual and DRM
platform plugins.
The EGL/GBM and QPainter backends have been remodelled after the DRM one,
sharing similiarities there as well now.
Pointer grabbing has been rewritten to support multiple outputs, now using
pointer locking instead of confining and drawing in this case onto a sub-
surface, which get dynamically recreated in between the different output
surfaces while the cursor is being moved.
Window resizing is possible if host supports xdg-shell, but currently the
mode size does not yet fill the new window size.
The number of outputs can be set by command line argument `--output-count`,
scaling is also supported by setting the argument `--scale`.
Further steps could be:
* Enabling automatic fill of resized windows via Wayland mode change
* Multiple diverging initial sizes and scale factors for mulitple outputs

Test Plan: Tested it in live session.

Summary:
Unfortunately a rather large change which required more refactoring than
initially expected. The main problem was that some parts needed to go
into platformsupport so that the platform plugins can link them. Due to
the rather monolithic nature of scene_opengl.h a few changes were
required:
* SceneOpenGL::Texture -> SceneOpenGLTexture
* SceneOpenGL::TexturePrivate -> SceneOpenGLTexturePrivate
* texture based code into dedicated files
* SwapProfiler code into dedicated files
* SwapProfiler only used in x11 variants
* Safety checks for OpenGL scene moved into the new plugin
* signal declared in SceneOpenGL moved to Scene, so that we don't need
to include SceneOpenGL in composite
Test Plan: Nested OpenGL compositor works

Summary:
Several of the subclasses are already derived from QObject.
The main reason is that the class should be moved out of KWin core in
order to move the OpenGL scene into a plugin. As Compositor calls into
the AbstractEglBackend to unbind the wayland display this creates a
problem which is easily solved by turning the AbstractEglBackend into a
QObject and connect to the signal emitted by the Compositor.

Summary:
Source code reorganization:
The base class AbstractBackend got renamed to Platform, thus the
"backends" are "platforms" now. As they are plugins they should go
together with other KWin plugins which are nowadays in the folder
plugins.
So new location is plugins/platforms/
