Ownership of decoration textures is moved from SceneOpenGL::Window to
OpenGLPaintRedirector. The PaintRedirector is responsible for updating
the textures whenever they change. For this GLTexture is extended by an
update(QImage, QPoint) method which uses glTexSubImage2D to update only
the changed parts.
The big advantage compared to before is that if e.g. only a button is
animated only the button part is updated instead of the complete deco
part.
Using a lib variable for:
* own libs
* qt libs
* kde libs
* xlib libs
* xcb libs
and link those groups together in target_link_libraries. This should
make the code easier to read and easier to support in future for some
time both Qt4 and Qt5.
displayWidth/Height() are rewritten on top of XCB. rootWindow() and
xTime() return xcb datatype instead of XLib datatype.
Unfortunatelly it's not possible to cache the result for displayWidth and
Height, but getting the default screen is cached and provided in another
method.

This is for two reasons:
1. Fixes crash on tear-down when XGetXCBConnection returns junk
2. In Qt5 getting the connection is not cheap enough for our uses

Uses query_pict_formats to retrieve all formats and iterates over them to
find the one matching the requested depth. Results are now cached in an
QHash with the depth as key instead of an array using the depth as index.
In case of native graphics system nothing is changed for the moment - the
X11Pixmap-QPixmap bridge is continued to be used.
But in case of graphics system raster (or Qt5) this relationship is no
longer used. Instead the QPixmap is converted to a QImage and the image
bits are put into the created X11Pixmap for this XRenderPicture.
Note: Qt5 uses shm to transfer image data to drawables. This seems
unsuited in this case as it's only a one time transformation.
For Qt5 the native pixmap block needs to be removed and the ctor might be
changed to taking an QImage as argument to make more clear that there is
no mapping from QPixmap to X11Pixmap.
Instead of having a pointer to a QPixmap the offscreen target holds an
xcb_render_picture_t. To make this possible in SceneWindow the tempPixmap
is changed from a QPixmap* to a XRenderPicture*. QPixmap was only used
for convenience.
ScreenShot Effect as only user of the offscreen target is adjusted but
as it needs a QImage, still uses a QPixmap wrapper.
This follows how it is done for OpenGL where the renderRoundBox() got
dropped some time ago.
New implementation implements the box with round corners using xrender
directly instead of using a QPainter on a QPixmap.
EffectsHandlerImpl starts to monitor DBus for the screen being locked and
provides this information to the Effect system by allowing them to ask
whether the screen is currently locked and by emitting a signal when the
screen gets locked/unlocked.
This information is needed to ensure that no private data is shown on the
screen. The following effects are adjusted:
* taskbar thumbnails
* thumbnail aside
* mouse mark
* screen shot

For each edge an additional "approach" area window is created. When the
mouse enters this approach window, it gets unmapped and a mouse polling
interval is started. If the mouse leaves the approach area again, the
window gets mapped again and the mouse polling is stopped.
During the approaching a signal is emitted with a factor in [0.0,1.0] to
describe how close the mouse is to the edge. 0.0 means far away, 1.0
means triggering the edge. This signal is passed to the effects to allow
using this information. E.g. to provide a glow corner effect or to make
use of it in the cube animation effect to start the animation on desktop
switch.
The main difference is that the activation of an edge is no longer
broadcasted to all effects and scripts, but instead a passed in slot of
the Effect/Script is invoked.
For this the EffectsHandler API is changed to take the Effect as an
argument to (un)reserveElectricBorder. As callback slot the existing
borderActivated is used.
In addition the ScreenEdge monitors the object for beeing destroyed and
unregisters the the edge automatically. This removes the need from the
Effect to call unregister in the dtor.

No effect has ever used these methods and there is no reason why an
effect should use them. Reserve/unreserve is sufficient as the effect
will be notified anyway.
Use xcb to create and manage the X11 backend of Outline. In addition the
used background pixmaps are rendered with XRender instead of using a
QPainter on a QPixmap. This is done because QPixmap is no longer bound to
an X Pixmap.
To create the XRender Picture the available functionality from
kwinxrenderutils is used. To be able to use it in KWin core the compile
option to build without XRender is removed for kwinxrenderutils, but
still supported for effects.
Obviously the port to XCB is not complete as xremderutils itself is still
on XLib.

In effects it's obvious that compositing is enabled, so specifying the
translucent element is no problem.
In tabbox a context property "compositing" is injected which decides
whether "translucent" or "opaque" elements should be used. Here the
translucent elements are only used if the Blur effect is available - for
this a new Effect::Feature Blur is introduced and in addition it is
tested whether the theme provides the translucent element.
Also the masking is adjusted to ensure that only the shadow is not
blurred.
Reason for this change is that Plasma theme seems not always to pick up
whether compositing is used when used from inside KWin. It does not cover
the Desktop Change OSD which uses PlasmaCore.Dialog and there we cannot
(yet) inject that we use compositing.
Overall I'm quite unhappy with this patch and I do hope we can fix it in
the proper place in the lifetime of 4.10 and revert this patch.

The extension handling is removed from kwinglobals and moved into the
xcbutils in KWin core in namespace KWin::Xcb. The motivation for this
change is that the Extensions are only used in KWin core and are marked
as internal. So there is no need to have them in the library.
What remains in Extensions are the non-native pixmaps. This will be
removed once we are on Qt 5 as QPixmap can no longer reference an XPixmap.
The remaining code in kwinglobals also still initialize the XLib versions
of extensions emitting events. It seems like there are no XEvents emitted
if not done so even if the extension is correctly initialized with xcb.
This needs to be removed once the event handling is ported over to xcb.

This property can be used to check whether a window is currently visible
to the user, that is:
* not minimized
* on the current desktop
* on current activity
This is a common need for various effects.

When correcting a color that was with premultiplied alpha, the alpha
value was not multiplied back again as a final step. This was breaking
color correction when the blend function was GL_ONE,
GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA. The blend function was changed for normal
windows (a workaround), but not for effect frames, i.e. the effect
frames were broken with color correction enabled.
Removes the blend function workaround.
Removes a useless setupForOutput.

Checks are now performed for GL errors and in case of errors everything
is aborted. The error handling mechanism introduced for this purpose
somewhat improves the color correction code.
Fix gl invalid operation in color correction, when first setting up the
lookup texture uniform.

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 ownership for virtual desktops is moved from Workspace into a new
VirtualDesktopManager. The manager is responsible for providing the count
of virtual desktops and keeping track of the currently used virtual
desktop.
All methods related to moving between desktops are also moved from
Workspace to the new manager, though all methods related to Clients on
Virtual Desktops remain in Workspace for the time being. This is to have
the new manager as independent from KWin core as possible.
An rather important change for the handling of virtual desktops is that
the count and the id of a desktop is now an unsinged integer instead of
an integer. The reason for that is that we cannot have a negative count
of desktops as well as it is not possible to be on a desktop with a
negative identifier.
In that regard it is important to remember that a Client can be on a
desktop with a negative identifier. The special value for a Client being
on all desktops is handled by using -1 as a desktop. For the time being
this is not adjusted but instead of comparing the virtual desktop ids one
should prefer to use the convenient methods like isOnDesktop and
isOnAllDesktops. This would allow in future to internally change the
representation for on all desktops.
This method can be used to get the animationTime in case a configuration
class generated through KConfigXT is used. In general the configuration
stores the magic value 0 for a property "duration". This magic value
indicates that a hard-coded default value should be used.
So the common logic to test the stored value for 0 and then either pass
the stored value or the default value to animationTime is encapsulated
in this method in a generic way.
A MyEffect can use it in the following way:
animationTime<MyEffectConfig>(200);
