Summary:
By changing all kcfg to have arg="true" we can pass in the same
KSharedConfigPtr into all effects. This allows to have fake config in
the tests and in the planned effect demo mode.
Also it means that we don't have to hardcode the name kwinrc into the
files. In the configs - where we cannot access the effectshandler - we
use the define KWIN_CONFIG which gets generated based on the compile
time arguments.

Summary:
When windows get added some effects grab the window and want to be the
only one animating this window. For this the grab roles exists. An
effect being notified later on evaluates the grab state and does not
start the animation.
This process failed due to being dependent on the order the effects are
loaded. Window Added/Closed are signals emitted by EffectsHandler, thus
first come, first serve. The requested effect order does not play into
it.
Due to that it could happen that an Effect which should not animate,
started to animate as the grab was still there.
This change adds the possibility to be notified whenever the window data
changes. A new signal is added to EffectsHandler which is emitted
whenever the windowData changes. The interested effects connect to it
and cancel their (just started) animation for the window.
Adjusted effects are:
* ScaleIn
* Fade
* WobblyWindows
In case of WobblyWindows an additional logical error was fixed that the
animations were only run when an effect grabbed instead of the other way
around.

Summary:
A new method to tell the effects system whether the compositor scene
is able to drive animations. E.g. on software emulation (llvmpipe) it's
better to not do any animations at all.
This information can be used by effects to adjust their behavior, e.g.
PresentWindows could skip transitions or effects can use it in their
supported check to completely disable themselves.
As a first step all scripted effects are considered to be unsupported
if animations are not supported. They inherit AnimationEffect and are
all about driving animations.
The information whether animations are supported comes from the Scene.
It's implemented in the following way:
* XRender: animations are always supported
* QPainter: animations are never supported
* OpenGL: animations are supported, except for software emulation
In addition - for easier testing - there is a new env variable
KWIN_EFFECTS_FORCE_ANIMATIONS to overwrite the selection.

This requires to subquad in the painting pass
what is not supported for non rectangular

if any quad is transformed (as by eg. the wobbling)

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.

All KCMs and KWin core use the BuiltInEffects namespace to find and
interact with the effects. There is no information left in the desktop
file which are of usage. Thus they can be removed.
This method replaces the X-KDE-ORDERING property in the Effect's desktop
files. This change is a preparation step for integrating the new Effect
Loader which doesn't read the ordering information. Thus it needs to be
provided by the Effect itself so that the EffectsHandler can properly
insert it into the chain.
Also for the built-in Effects on the long run it doesn't make much sense
to install the desktop files. And binary plugin effects will migrate to
json metadata which also doesn't have the KService::Ptr. Thus overall it
simplifies to read this information directly from the Effect.
Most is just switched to the ::read(). That should be enough for all the
Effects which have a KSharedConfig::Ptr underneath. If not we just need
to find a good place to put the reload.
Instead of using EffectsHandler::sendReloadMessage we generate the dbus
interface in each plugin and call the reconfigure slot directly. That way
it's more type safe and we don't need to link kwineffects from the
configs.

There are no advantages for the effects KCM to have all the effect
config modules in one plugin.
By having a plugin per effect we can use the KPluginTrader to easily
find the configuration plugin for a given effect and load it.
To make this possible the following changes are done:
* config_builtins.cpp is deleted
* add_subdirectory is used for all effects which have a config module
* toplevel CMakeLists.txt contains the sources again for the effects
which have a config module, but effects which don't have a config
module are still included and thus the macro is still used
* plugin created for the config module, name pattern is:
kwin_effectname_config
* plugin installed to ${PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR}/kwin/effects/configs
* desktop file adjusted to new plugin name and keyword removed
* desktop file converted to json as meta data and no longer installed
* Uses K_PLUGIN_FACTORY_WITH_JSON
* Macros for config are dropped from kwineffects.h

As all effects have always been compiled into the same .so file it's
questionable whether resolving the effects through a library is useful
at all. By linking against the built-in effects we gain the following
advantages:
* don't have to load/unload the KLibrary
* don't have to resolve the create, supported and enabled functions
* no version check required
* no dependency resolving (effects don't use it)
* remove the KWIN_EFFECT macros from the effects
All the effects are now registered in an effects_builtins file which
maps the name to a factory method and supported or enabled by default
methods.
During loading the effects we first check whether there is a built-in
effect by the given name and make a shortcut to create it through that.
If that's not possible the normal plugin loading is used.
Completely unscientific testing [1] showed an improvement of almost 10
msec during loading all the effects I use.
[1] QElapsedTimer around the loading code, start kwin five times, take
average.

* "" needs to be wrapped in QStringLiteral
* QString::fromUtf8 needed for const char* and QByteArray
* QByteArray::constData() needed to get to the const char*
Many headers included KLocale to use i18n and co. But those methods are
defined in KLocalizedString and not in KLocale.
With KF5 klocale.h does no longer include KLocalizedString causing lots
of compile errors.
The CompositingType enum turns into flags and two new values are
introduced: OpenGL1Compositing and OpenGL2Compositing.
Those new values are or-ed to OpenGLCompositing so that a simple check
for the flag OpenGLCompositing works in case of one of those two new
values. To make the generic check for OpenGL compositing easier a method
in EffectsHandler is introduced to just check for this.
The scenes now return either OpenGL1Compositing or OpenGL2Compositing
depending on which Scene implementation. None returns OpenGLCompositing.
