* this effect is way cheaper than blur, don't cache it
* use its own atom
* also pass the matrix in the x property
* remove remnants of the cache
* do just a single pass
* get rid of config ui remnants
Also harmonize script parsing - any combination of animationarray
and global animation setting that results in a valid animation is
possible using the global settings as default on the array values

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.

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 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.
