Summary:
Currently, if one wants to install a scripted effect from the KDE Store,
the effect won't show up in the Desktop Effects KCM. The reason for that
is kpackagetool5 doesn't know where to install effects (they have to be
installed under ${DATA_DIR}/kwin/effects).
Another problem is that even if the scripted effect is installed in the
right directory (e.g. ~/.local/share/kwin/effects), it won't be listed in
the Desktop Effects KCM because it doesn't have a desktop file in
kservices5 dir. Please notice that the effect will be "visible" for KWin, i.e.
you can enable it by editing kwinrc.
This diff addresses those 2 problems by:
* Adding a PackageStructure plugin for effects (so they are installed
under kwin/effects/);
* Using KPackage::PackageLoader to get list of scripted effect in the
Desktop Effects KCM.
Test Plan:
* Installed an effect from the KDE Store, it appeared in the Desktop Effects
KCM;
* Removed it.

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
