Summary:
KWin already used C++14 constructs in a conditional way. This doesn't
make much sense today, it's better to just require C++14.
For KWin only gcc and clang are currently compilers of relevance. Gcc
supports C++14 since version 5 and defaults to C++14 since 6.1 [1].
Clang supports C++14 since version 3.4 [2].
An overview of compiler support in various distributions:
* Debian stable (stretch): gcc 6.3, clang 3.8
* Debian oldstable (jessie): 4.9, clang 3.5
* Ubuntu 17.04: gcc 6.1, clang 3.8
* Ubuntu 16.04: gcc 5.3, clang 3.8
* openSUSE Tumbleweed: gcc 7.1, clang 4.0
* openSUSE Leap 42.3: gcc ?, clang ? [3]
* FreeBSD: clang >= 34 in ports
* Slackware 14.2: gcc 5.3
This overview shows that every distro out there has at least one
supported compiler which can still compile KWin with this change.

Summary:
Weird NVIDIA behavior fixup part 2. Now that we do no longer freeze when
NVIDIA decides to create an OpenGL error on startup
(aefb5f4dd9), we experience a new issue.
KWin is terminating (no idea why, [1]) and at the same time the OpenGL freeze
protection thread is still running. So far we did not terminate the
thread on shutdown and thus we hit an abort in Qt.
This change ensures that we properly terminate the thread on shutdown.
[1] My current theory is that games terminate KWin, common pattern of
bug reports is "steam".

Summary:
There is a regression in WindowBasedEdge::soStopApproaching. Due to
only operate when the edge activates for pointer it is possible that
the cursor polling stays active. Explaining the situation:
1. Activate switch desktop when moving window
2. Start moving a window
3. Move mouse into the approach geometry
-> doStartApproaching activates as we are moving a window
4. stop moving window
-> doStopApproaching early exits as the position does not activate for
pointer any more - we are not moving a window
-> cursor polling is still connected and whenever mouse enters edge
approaching is started
The analysis shows that the check whether activates for pointer is wrong
in the case of stop approaching. If the edge started to approach, we also
need to stop approaching.
This change addresses the problem by turning the check into whether the
connection for cursor position update is set.
This is the third bug fix to the X11 screen edge handling after
introducing touch screen edges. This needs more manual testing by
everybody in the Plasma team who is still using X11.

Summary:
To have touch events working we need to do memory layout changes on the
xcb events. This is fine for identifying the touch events which should
trigger the screen edge. But when passed on to Qt to have QtQuick windows
(e.g. Alt+Tab) handle the touch events, this results in a problem:
Qt itself does also the memory movement and then the movement is double
and touch events break.
To prevent this problem an RAII class is added which moves the memory in
the ctor and moves it back in the dtor. So during KWin's processing it
has the right memory layout and later on in Qt's processing it has the
proper "wrong" layout which Qt can fix again.

Summary:
Another regression from enabling touch support on X11.
The approach window for pointer input gets unmapped as soon as the mouse
enters the window. This ensures that mouse motion events are not stolen
from other applications. But with the touch events we did not even react
on the enter event if it's not activated for pointer. The result was an
area around the screenedge being blocked for pointer input.
This change only creates and maps the approach window if the edge is
activated for pointer input.

Summary:
Each Edge creates a SwipeGesture for touch activation. The swipe needs to
be a single finger starting from the edge into the screen for at least
20 %. The SwipeGesture and GestureRecognizer is extended to support the
use cases of the touch screen edge swipe.
New features supported by the gesture system are:
* minimum and maximum position
* a minimum delta for the swipe
* progress signal based on the minimum delta
* starting a swipe with a start point
The Edge has the progress signal connected to its approach signal, thus
visual feedback is provided through the screen edge effect.
The screen edge system supports touch only for the edges (corners are
too difficult to activate on touch screens). At the moment the following
features are supported:
* screen edge show/raise of windows (e.g. auto hidden panels)
* trigger the configured action
* trigger the configured callback function (e.g. script)
In future it might make sense to add a touch specific configuration
action to support different actions for screen edges activated by mouse
and touch.

Summary:
The functionality regarding triggering modifier only shortcuts is moved
out of Xkb - where it doesn't belong to - and is turned into an input
event spy listening for the changes it is interested in. Previously
the state got queried by asking e.g. for the pressed buttons, now it's
tracked directly.
The X11 side needs a larger change due to that as now pushing the events
into Xkb does not trigger modifier only shortcuts any more. Instead the
"normal" way through the platform API needs to be used which triggers the
processing of filters and spies.
The problem here is that our redirections only process events if they are
inited and that only happens on Wayland. We cannot call init on them as
that would create all the Wayland filters and spies and processing would
probably break. As an intermediate solution the spies are now processed
and there we know that it won't matter. A future solution would be to
remove the init checks completely and just send through both filters and
spies and ensure that on X11 only the supported ones are loaded.

InputRedirection has a workaround to add a connect on a QAction which

the xtime needs to be updated.
This change adds a new virtual method to the Platform and moves the
implementation into the X11 standalone platform. Thus it does no longer
gets called on Wayland.

Summary:
Instead of having the egl extensions in the global kwinglutils lib it
becomes private to the AbstractEglBackend. Just like on glx the
glxextensions are moved into the platform.
The extensions are queried from initEglAPI, that is as early as possible
after initializing the EGLDisplay. This ensures that any implementing
subclass can access the extensions early enough.
As a note: the EglOnXBackend had a potentially wrong sequence for
initializing the buffer age extension. It is now moved to the correct
place where the result is needed for the first time.
From the global API eglExtensions are removed from hasGLExtension and
the eglExtensions function is dropped. As by that initEGL did not do
anything it is also dropped.

Summary:
A new virtual method is added to Platform:
startInteractiveWindowSelection
The interactive window selection enters a mode where the user can select
a window through the pointer or keyboard device. The cursor is turned
into a crosshair cursor, unless another cursor name is provided (e.g.
pirate for kill window).
Once a window is selected the provided callback method is invoked with
the selected Toplevel as argument. In case the user cancelled the
selection a nullptr argument is passed in.
Currently it's only implemented by the X11 standalone platform using the
logic from KillWindow. Just instead of killing the window the callback
is invoked.
KillWindow loses the X11 implementation and interacts with the new
functionality in Platform by providing a lambda function for the
killing.
Test Plan: Killing of X11 windows is still possible

Summary:
And finally nothing inside libkwineffects, libkwinglutils,
libkwinxrenderutils and kwineffect and kwin core uses KWin::display.
We are finally XLib free!
This change drops KWin::display and removes the include to QX11Info from
kwinglobals.h. And the libraries no longer need to link X11Extras. Due
to that removal a few seeming unrelated changes are required to add the
include where needed and linkage to X11Extras.
The biggest change is to x11 platform plugin which still needs the
display and caches it in the Platform and passes it to various places in
a way that the code doesn't need to be adjusted.

Summary:
KWin still resolves some OpenGL function pointers. For that it needs to
use either eglGetProcAddress or glxGetProcAddress. With other words the
method to resolve needs to know whether it is egl or glx and needs both
a dependency to egl and glx. Especially the dependency to glx is ugly as
that pulls in XLib into our library.
The way so far was to pass an enum value to the initGL method to know
whether it's EGL or GLX. With this change the enum value is removed and
replaced by a function pointer to resolve the methods.
This simplifies the resolve code and allows to completely remove the glx
variant we still had in the library. Thus kwinglutils library is now glx
and XLib free.
Test Plan: nested KWin with OpenGL/EGL still works

Summary:
Glx extensions are only interesting to the glxbackend. Given that
querying can be moved there.
In order to simplify the extensions can be stored in the OpenGLBackend
which also provides the convenience check as before.
The egl platforms should also be adjusted to query in that way and
remove it from the kwinglutils.
There is still a usage of the glxextensions inside kwinglutils to
resolve one function. That should also be moved into the platform.

Summary:
Some platforms support to hide and show the cursor. This will be needed
by e.g. the zoom effect which currently only provides this functionality
on X11.
This change introduces a new method in the Platform to hide and show the
cursor. The methods need to be called balanced and the implementation
takes care of only showing again if all hide got matched by a show.
The actual hiding and showing is performed in the platform plugins. So
far the DRM and X11/Standalone platforms implement the required
functionality, though other platforms probably could implement as well.

Summary:
With nouveau driver it can happen that KWin gets frozen when first trying
to render with OpenGL. This results in a freeze of the complete desktop
as the compositor is non functional.
Our OpenGL breakage detection is only able to detect crashes, but not
freezes. This change improves it by also added a freeze protection.
In the PreInit stage a thread is started with a QTimer of 15 sec. If the
timer fires, qFatal is triggered to terminate KWin. This can only happen
if the creation of the OpenGL compositor takes longer than said 15 sec.
In the PostInit stage the timer gets deleted and the thread stopeed
again.
Thus if a freeze is detected the OpenGL unsafe protection is written into
the config. KWin aborts and gets restarted by DrKonqui. The new KWin
instance will no longer try to activate the freezing OpenGL as the
protection is set.
If KWin doesn't freeze the protection is removed from the config as
we are used to.
Check for freezes for the first n frames, not just the first
This patch changes the freeze detection code to detect freezes in the
first 30 frames (by default, users can change that with the
KWIN_MAX_FRAMES_TESTED environment variable). This detects
successfully the freezes associated to nouveau drivers
