ScreenEdge is changed to emit a signal whenever a screen edge
got activated without an action or effect taking care of it.
A Script can reserve one to many callbacks for an edge and the
callback get's triggered whenever the signal is emitted. On
deconstruction of the Script the edge is unreserved again.

A global method "registerShortcut" is exported to the scripts which
can be used to register a callback to be called when the global
shortcut is triggered.
The shared code between Scripts and Effects is moved into template
functions defined in a new file scriptingutils.h.

Objects of AnimationData can be instantiated by scripts and expose
all relevant data as properties, so that the ScriptedEffect can
construct the meta value out of it.
This is probably something that could be done a little bit better.
Still need to think about it, so API not yet final.

The Plasma package structure contains a subdirectory "contents".
Furthermore we have to use locate instead of locateLocal to find
system wide installed packages and adding some debug output for
the case that the script cannot be found.
The scripted effects can define their configuration through a
KConfigXT file in the same way as a packaged Plasmoid. Because of
that the ScriptedEffect also uses the Plasma::ConfigLoader to load
and manage the configuration. The config group used for the scripted
effect is like any other effect the "Effect-name" group.
In difference to the Plasmoid JavaScript API effects are not allowed
to change their configuration.
Simplifies the API. An FPx2 can be defined as a single real value
or a complex object with two real values:
{
value1: 1.0,
value2: 2.0
}
For a default ctor a null value can be used.
Scripted effects follow the Plamsoid package structure and the effect
loader recognizes a scripted effect at the according line in the desktop
file. If it is a scripted effect a different loader is used which
instantiates an object of the ScriptedEffect class. This class inherits
the AnimationEffect and exports the animate method and the EffectsHandler.
