The Script class has a DBus API we want to export. At some point this
has got broken and the run method is not exported.
It's a bit messy with script subclasses also having other invokables
that we want to export to scripts, so an adaptor is used to keep things
separated.
The interface name has technically changed, but KWin was doing something
weird and using the same interface names for the manager. Fortunately
calling Plasma code doesn't specify an interface so this still works.
Summary:
QScriptEngine is deprecated for years and suffers bitrot.
Plasma hit one super major bug with it in 5.11.0 and has now ported
away.
Main porting notes:
- creating low level functions no longer exists
The old global functions are exposed on the ScriptedEffect instance
and then the QJSValue wrappers of the globalObject are modified to
trampoline the methods at a wrapper level.
- We can then use QJSEngine to automatically do argument error checking
rather than unmarshalling a QJSValue manually which significantly
reduces a lot of code.
- We can't make FPX2 a native type, so these are QJSValue args and
unboxed there.
Long term I want overloads for animate that take int/QSize/QPoint which
are native JS types, but that might be an API break.
Test Plan:
Hopefully comprehensive unit test which passes
Tested fade/fadeDesktop manually.
It's a very invasive change, so I expect some things will be broke
please help test any JS effects.

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.
