Like with WindowSwitcher the configured value might be for the
look and feel package and thus we should first try to locate it
from the look and feel package.
Following features are supported:
* finds all plugins
** finds all themes for a theme-engine plugin
* renders previews for the plugin/themes
* loads currently used plugin/theme
* saves selected plugin/theme
* triggers config reload in KWin
Following features are currently not supported:
* Search
* Plugin configuration
* GHNS
* Button configuration
* Aurorae needs to pass QVariantList args to parent Decoration
* DecorationBridge implementation needs to be a KWIN_SINGLETON
* DecorationBridge needs to be passed with args to created Decoration
We assume the configured layout name is a look and feel package. Thus
the Switcher is located at contents/windowswitcher/WindowSwitcher.qml
of that package.

Currently just opening the Desktop Effects KCM loads QtMultimedia which
in turn loads gstreamer 0.10. If one opens any other KCM in
systemsettings and changes without applying the change, the window
freezes when the warning dialog gets shown, because the warning message
pulls in Phonon with maybe the Gstreamer backend which uses
gstreamer 1.0. This is bad, bad and breaks everything.
By using a Loader the problem scope gets reduced. It still happens but
only if one actually watches a video. Only opening the KCM doesn't
trigger the problem any more.

The idea behind the ThemeFinder is to expose a way for a configuration
module to find all themes. The API is not yet finalized, thus it's just
a QObject with a Q_PROPERTY themes of type QVariantMap with key being
the user visible name and value being the internal theme name.
The ThemeFinder will have to be moved to KDecoration library.
The json metadata provides a "themeListKeyword" which is used as the
keyword to the KPluginFactory.
DecorationShadow is supported through using the padding values. The
window becomes larger by the padding and gets positioned accordingly.
This requires to translate all mouse events.
The DecorationShadow is just using the complete image, which is kind of
a memory waste, but at least the SVG based Aurorae doesn't provide us
better information (might be added, but would probably need changes in
the theme).
For switching back to non-compositing we recreate the QuickWindow. It's
not fortunate, but as long as we do not yet have the render control it's
needed.
