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

-use qstringliteral only when necessary (i.e. not in concat or comparison)
-use qbytearray instead of qstring when dealing with latin1 input and output (glplatform)
-use qstringref to extract numbers from strings (glplatform)
-define qt_use_qstringbuilder to optimize all string concatenations
-anidata: use ctor init lists, add windowType member initialization

X-KDE-ParentComponents is a list, so we have to check if this list
contains the plugin, not do a string comparison. It seems the
queryparser has become a bit stricter in this case. This query should be
fixed anyway, however, and it fixes a fairly important bug in the effect
system.

First try to locate all look-and-feel packages and check whether
they provide a WindowSwitcher. If they do they are inserted in
the list with the Package name being the user visible name.
So the good old sidebar is now called "Breeze".

This removes all the hacks to add kwin4_effect_ to the name of the Effect
and adjusts the desktop files of the effect configuration's parent
component.
Note: the scripted effects still start with kwin4_effect_ prefix.

Instead of using the KServiceTypeTrader we use the BuiltInEffects to get
the name of CoverSwitch and FlipSwitch.
Showing the configuration dialog is migrated to KPluginTrader which fixes
the showing of the dialog.
Needs to implement a dummy switcher item. As the root item of the
switchers are no longer QQuickItem derived it cannot use a QQuickView.
Instead a component gets created and the switcher is just shown on the
primary screen. It's a more appropriate preview now which is not
put into a dialog window.
To make it more realistic (and to be able to dismiss it) the preview
grabs keyboard and mouse and closes itself if escape, return, enter or
space is pressed.
As well clicking outside the preview window closes the preview.
It's an option doing pretty much the same as the highlight of selected
window option. But it is known to conflict especially with some Plasma
themes.

Since the QML port the LayoutMode had been hardcoded to vertical
layout making it a completely useless code-path.
MinWidth/Height are nowadays completely controlled by the QML
theme. They were not read anywhere except in the kcm, but there
not even bound to a ui element.
The selectedItemLayoutName is also not used anymore with the
new themes.
Next to the preview/configure button a GHNS button is included
as a simple button with icon only to not break the layout.
Currently the button is not shown as the category on kde-look
has not yet been created yet.

Additional TabBox Mode which allows to switch between all open
windows of the current selected application. By default Alt+tilde
is used which is on qwerty just one key above tab. For non-qwerty
layouts the shortcut is unfortunately not convenient.

This allows to select whether TabBox should exclude minimized windows,
or only show minimized windows or just don't care about minimized windows.
This is the default and the behavior as it used to be.

Replaced by a TabBox layout. The effect is still there as it
can be used for desktop switching (which is not yet ported to layouts)
and as a proxy effect for CoverSwitch.
The users who use BoxSwitch will be migrated to the new layout.
