Instead of each effect, which needs to announce support, having custom
code to create a property and set it on the root window, there is now a
common API in EffectsHandler to take care of this.
The methods takes care of creating the atom if it has not already done
and set the property on the root window. Furthermore it allows multiple
effects to announce the same property without getting in conflict with
each other.
As a further convenience the property is automatically removed when the
effect is unloaded, so less things an effect author has to care about.

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.
The supportInformation is extended to also read the properties
on all effects. In addition each effect can be queried just for
itself through D-Bus, e.g.:
qdbus org.kde.kwin /KWin supportInformationForEffect kwin4_effect_blur
All effects are extended to provide their configured and read
settings through properties. In some cases also important
runtime information is exposed.

FIXED-IN: 4.9.1
The public member variables for opacity, saturation and brightness
are removed in favor for getter and setters. The variables are
moved into a private class. Those are now qreal instead of double.
To make usage inside the effects easier a multiply method is added
which multiplies the current value with passed in factor and returns
the new value in a functional programming style.

Creating an EffectFrame requires I/O which takes on my system
during testing between 10 and 40 msec. Also it needs a little
bit of memory.
This changes moves out the creation of EffectFrames at Effect
load till the Effect actually needs the EffectFrame. E.g. if a
user does not filter in PresentWindows there is no need to ever
create it.
BoxSwitch effect is ignored as it should be dropped for 4.9.

it's even worse, since it interferes with generally upscaled windows
(keeps them big, applies false transition and causes a final snapback)
and windata->highlight doesn't end at zero, so the entire screen is
still a little scaled when the effect ends (and snaps down afterwards)
now it snaps down when starting the leave what is better in general
and the only usable solution for upscaled windows.
some day presentwindows might be derived from the yet-to-add
animationeffect class ;-)
This patch introduces some kind of damage propagation. In the old version of the blur effect
we had to repaint the whole window if sth behind the blurred area was damaged. The new texture
cache, which was introduced by the last patch, gives us the opportunity to only update parts of
blurred background texture. This means that the damaged area can only propagate with the speed
of the blurring radius per window layer.

Each effect is able to declare itself as currently being active,
that is transforming windows or painting or screen or doing anything
during the current rendered frame.
This change eliminates the hottest path inside KWin identified by
callgrind.

Due to changes in build system we have always either OpenGL or OpenGL ES.
This allows to remove the KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL_COMPOSITING define. In the
effects the define is kept as KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL which can be used in
future to build also an XRender only effect system.

The uniforms textureWidth and textureHeight were only needed for
normal windows. For everything else it was just 1.0/1.0, that is
normalized.
The makeArrays method is changed to produce normalized texcoords
obsoleting the need for these uniforms. So two uniforms less, one
calculation in vertex shaders less and many many lines of code
removed.
At the same time makeArrays is also adjusted to take care of
yInverted of the texture, which is needed as we no longer can use
the enableUnnormalizedTexCoords which did the yInverted transformation.
