Once in a while, we receive complaints from other fellow KDE developers
about the file organization of kwin. This change addresses some of those
complaints by moving all of source code in a separate directory, src/,
thus making the project structure more traditional. Things such as tests
are kept in their own toplevel directories.
This change may wreak havoc on merge requests that add new files to kwin,
but if a patch modifies an already existing file, git should be smart
enough to figure out that the file has been relocated.
We may potentially split the src/ directory further to make navigating
the source code easier, but hopefully this is good enough already.
On that signal, we asquare the new layout anyway all over the places.
Better just pass it along with the signal instead.
Also it's in-line with DBus API signal.
The main advantage of SPDX license identifiers over the traditional
license headers is that it's more difficult to overlook inappropriate
licenses for kwin, for example GPL 3. We also don't have to copy a
lot of boilerplate text.
In order to create this change, I ran licensedigger -r -c from the
toplevel source directory.
Implemented for Global, Virtual Desktop and Application layout policies.
Not implemented for Window policy due separate windows do not preserve
their IDs between sessions (still could be implemented the same way as for Application policy).
Layout saving/restoring happens on Session save/load.
Covered by unit tests
Summary:
Currently code base of kwin can be viewed as two pieces. One is very
ancient, and the other one is more modern, which uses new C++ features.
The main problem with the ancient code is that it was written before
C++11 era. So, no override or final keywords, lambdas, etc.
Quite recently, KDE compiler settings were changed to show a warning if
a virtual method has missing override keyword. As you might have already
guessed, this fired back at us because of that ancient code. We had
about 500 new compiler warnings.
A "solution" was proposed to that problem - disable -Wno-suggest-override
and the other similar warning for clang. It's hard to call a solution
because those warnings are disabled not only for the old code, but also
for new. This is not what we want!
The main argument for not actually fixing the problem was that git
history will be screwed as well because of human factor. While good git
history is a very important thing, we should not go crazy about it and
block every change that somehow alters git history. git blame allows to
specify starting revision for a reason.
The other argument (human factor) can be easily solved by using tools
such as clang-tidy. clang-tidy is a clang-based linter for C++. It can
be used for various things, e.g. fixing coding style(e.g. add missing
braces to if statements, readability-braces-around-statements check),
or in our case add missing override keywords.
Test Plan: Compiles.

Summary:
This is quite similar to the policy "window" - the main difference is
that windows from the same application share the layout. So only
switching to a window from another application changes the layout.
This change is the last policy to add for support of all the policies we
have on X11.

Summary:
This policy stores the layout for each window which becomes active
and restores the layout once it gets activated again.

Summary:
This change introduces the initial support for keyboard layout switching
policies like in the X11 session. This first change only adds support for
Global and Virtual Desktop policy. This means the current layout is
stored in context to the current virtual desktop. Whenever one changes
the virtual desktop the previous layout is restored. If the user has not
yet navigated to this virtual desktop a switch to default layout is
performed.
This is the first code interacting with the new Virtual Desktop API which
is not based on integer ids. To fully support this the API is slightly
extended.
