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.
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.
Summary:
The overlay window is only needed for the X11 based compositors. Given
that it is better suited in the X11 platform. Unfortunately it is not
possible to completely move it into the platform plugin as it is still
referenced in KWin core (e.g. SceneXRender). Due to that the
OverlayWindow in KWin core is turned into a pure virtual class with the
implementation being moved into the plugin.
The platform API gains a new virtual factory method which is only
implemented in the X11 platform.

Summary:
It's only needed by the standalone x11 variant. This allows us to
simplify the creation of the OpenGLBackend: it's created by the
platform plugin - we don't need custom complex logic.

All the functionality of Overlay Window is moved to its own class
OverlayWindow. It is created and owned by class Scene, since almost
all function calls are called from this class.
