Summary:
Currently, there are a couple of issues with sizeForClientSize(). First
of all, we have a method called clientSizeToFrameSize() which does similar
thing except applying geometry constraints and checking window rules. The
other issue is that sizeForClientSize() is doing a bit too much, it checks
window rules, it applies a bunch of geometry constrains. Sometimes it
does not perform conversion between client sizes and frame sizes!
This change attempts to address those issues by replacing sizeForClientSize
with two similar methods and changing semantics of some methods of the
X11Client class.
The most significant difference between sizeForClientSize() and the new
methods is that neither constrainClientSize() nor constrainFrameSize()
check window rules. This is up to users of those methods. In many places,
we don't have to check window rules because we check isResizable(),
which returns false if the frame size is enforced by a window rule.

Not all Client classes have support for the maximized mode. Therefore,
it can be made opt-in to reduce the amount of plumbed methods.
Unfortunately, there a few places, which don't have any connection with
the maximized mode, where AbstractClient::geometryRestore() is used, so
it cannot be made 100% optional at the moment.

In long term, we want to split XdgShellClient into several classes. One
class for xdg-toplevel clients, and the other one for xdg-popup clients.
xdg-popup clients are much simpler than xdg-toplevel clients, they can't
be maximized or shown in full screen mode, they can't be interactively
moved on the screen, and so on. In the end, we will have to plumb many
pure virtual methods, which looks a bit ugly.
This change makes support for the minimized state in AbstractClient
optional so we don't have to add those no-op methods and keep code more
or less "clean."

Summary:
Currently we have two signals that are emitted when the Toplevel's geometry
changes - geometryShapeChanged() and geometryChanged(). The former signal
is used primarily to invalidate cached window quads and the latter is
sort of emitted when the frame geometry changes. But it's not that easy. We
have a bunch of connects that link those signals together...
The worst part about all of this is that the window quads cache gets
invalidated every time a geometry update occurs, for example when user
moves a window around on the screen.
This change introduces a new signal and deprecates the existing geometryChanged
signal. frameGeometryChanged is similar to geometryChanged except that it is
emitted when an _actual_ geometry change has occurred.
We do still emit geometryShapeChanged signal. However, in long term, we
need to get rid of this signal or come up with something that makes sense
and doesn't require us to waste computational resources.

Summary:
KDE is known for having a strong view on the client-side decorations vs
server-side decorations issue. The main argument raised against CSD is
that desktop will look less consistent when clients start drawing window
decorations by themselves, which is somewhat true. It all ties to how
well each toolkit is integrated with the desktop environment.
KDE doesn't control the desktop market on Linux. Another big "player"
is GNOME. Both KDE and GNOME have very polarized views on in which
direction desktop should move forward. The KDE community is pushing more
toward server-side decorations while the GNOME community is pushing
more toward client-side decorations. Both communities have developed
great applications and it's not rare to see a GNOME application being
used in KDE Plasma. The only problem is that these different views are
not left behind the curtain and our users pay the price. Resizing GTK
clients in Plasma became practically impossible due to resize borders
having small hit area.
When a client draws its window decoration, it's more likely that it also
draws the drop-shadow around the decoration. The compositor must know
the extents of the shadow so things like snapping and so on work as
expected. And here lies the problem... While the xdg-shell protocol has
a way to specify such things, the NetWM spec doesn't have anything like
that. There's _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS in the wild, however the problem with
it is that it's a proprietary atom, which is specific only to GTK apps.
Due to that, _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS wasn't implemented because implementing
anything like that would require major changes in how we think about
geometry.
Recent xdg-shell window geometry patches adjusted geometry abstractions
in kwin to such a degree that it's very easy to add support for client
side decorated clients on X11. We just have to make sure that the
X11Client class provides correct buffer geometry and frame geometry when
the gtk frame extents are set.
Even though the X11 code is feature frozen, I still think it's worth
to have _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS support in kwin because it will fix the resize
issues. Also, because KWin/Wayland is unfortunately far from becoming
default, it will help us with testing some implementation bits of the
window geometry from xdg-shell.

Summary:
Currently our Scene is quite naive about geometry. It assumes that the
window frame wraps the attached buffer/client. While this is true for X11
clients, such geometry model is not suitable for client-side decorated
clients, in our case for xdg-shell clients that set window geometry
other than the bounding rectangle of the main surface.
In general, the proposed solution doesn't make any concrete assumptions
about the order between frame and buffer geometry, however we may still
need to reconsider the design of Scene once it starts to generate quads
for sub-surfaces.

Summary:
In order to properly implement xdg_surface.set_window_geometry we need
two kinds of geometry - frame and buffer. The frame geometry specifies
visible bounds of the client on the screen, excluding client-side drop
shadows. The buffer geometry specifies rectangle on the screen that the
attached buffer or x11 pixmap occupies on the screen.
This change renames the geometry property to frameGeometry in order to
reflect the new meaning assigned to it as well to make it easier to
differentiate between frame geometry and buffer geometry in the future.

Summary:
So far wayland was used by internal clients to submit raster buffers
and position themselves on the screen. While we didn't have issues with
submitting raster buffers, there were some problems with positioning
task switchers. Mostly, because we had effectively two paths that may
alter geometry.
A better approach to deal with internal clients is to let our QPA use
kwin core api directly. This way we can eliminate unnecessary roundtrips
as well make geometry handling much easier and comprehensible.
The last missing piece is shadows. Both Plasma::Dialog and Breeze widget
style use platform-specific APIs to set and unset shadows. We need to
add shadows API to KWindowSystem. Even though some internal clients lack
drop-shadows at the moment, I don't consider it to be a blocker. We can
add shadows back later on.

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.

Summary:
There are rules that have to be applied only once, e.g. every Remember
and Apply Initially rule, as well rules that need to configure the client,
e.g. size, etc. In the best scenario the compositor would evaluate such
rules when the client is about to be mapped.
This change limits window rules only to xdg-shell clients because right
now only this protocol lets compositors to intervene in the client
initialization process. Also, it makes things a bit easier for us on the
compositor side.
xdg-shell protocol satisfies most of ours requirements to implement window
rules, but not all of them. If the client is about to be mapped for the
second time and its size is forced by a rule, then compositor may need
to configure it. Currently, xdg-shell protocol doesn't have any mechanism
that a client could use to notify the compositor about its intent to map.

int is used only when we have either a desktop ID or NET::OnAllDesktops

have these entries, and I don't want to shadow that enum internally or
have
to change kwin effect code.
