Summary:
This is an alternative solution to T8707 and in comparision to D13276 a less
drastic change to KWin's default behavior.
Instead of changing the border size default for all KDecoration plugins by
switching the default from border size Normal to None introduce new
functionality, which allows a KDecoration plugin to recommend a border size in
its metadata. By default KWin listens for these recommendations and sets the
border size accordingly.
If there is no metadata recommending a border size, KWin falls back to the
current setting of Normal sized borders.
A user is able to override the recommendations from the KCM, which has been
extended accordingly.
Test Plan: Manually with adjusted metadata of Breeze.

Summary:
* Wrote new KCM based on KQuickAddons::ConfigModule.
* Remade QMLs for Buttons and Themes tabs.
* Updated bridge model code for new plugin lookup API (fixes warnings).
* Fixed decoration shadow changing messing with the previews sizes.
* Fixed button drag and drop issues (see D18104).
* Fixed default settings button behavior and detection of settings changes.
* Updated Get Hot New Stuff.
* Removed apply button in previewbridge.cpp: After applying changes, a theme's KCModule is invalidated.

Test Plan:
* Verified saving and loading for every setting
* Checked shadows of Breeze and Oxygen
* Tested all possible drag&drop operations on both sides of the fake titlebar
* Changed color schemes (with `kcmshell5 colors`) while showing the Themes tab to see if all previews update correctly their palettes
* Tested on a fresh Neon-developer account, via kcmshell and systemsettings

This brings back the configuration for decoration plugins. As a change
to the old variant the configure button is moved into the list view
together with the preview. It is enabled/disabled depending on data
provided by the DecorationModel. For a plugin the DecorationModel
queries for a boolean "kcmodule" key in the metadata. For a theme it
invokes the slot hasConfiguration with the theme name which returns
whether the theme provides configuration.
The actual opening of the configuration is triggered from the
PreviewBridge, which uses the existing KPluginFactory to load the
KCModule. The decoration plugin must provide the keyword "kcmodule"
for it.
So far Aurorae is adjusted and provides configuration for the Plastik
decoration. The interaction with the configuration module works, but
the configuration itself for Plastik seems to be currently broken.
KNewStuff is no longer hard-coded to Aurorae themes. Instead the
availability of KNewStuff is derived from the available plugin
metadata. If the section org.kde.kdecoration2 contains a key
"KNewStuff" it's value is interpreted as the knsrc config file name.
If there is at least one plugin with such a key KNS gets enabled.
If there are multiple plugins providing KNS support the download
button is turned into a button with a connected menu and each menu
entry points to one of the available resources. Of course this is
not optimal, but KNS doesn't allow the combining of multiple config
files.
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
Qml based Aurorae themes can provided a ui file which gets loaded at
runtime. Obviously such a ui file is not translated. This introduces
quite a hack to load the translated strings.
First of all a new property is added to the service file for
specifying the translation domain to be used for the config UI. If
such a translation domain is set we extract all string properties of
the loaded UI and pass them through ki18nd.
* A KDecoration needs to include json metadata
* A KDecoration needs to be installed to kwin/kdecorations
* Aurorae and Oxygen adjusted
* kcmdeco locates all decorations through the KPluginTrader
* libkdecoration uses KPluginTrader to find the plugin
* config plugins also need to include json metadata with
X-KDE-PluginInfo-Name being the same as the decoration
* config plugins need to get installed to kwin/kdecorations/config
* kcmdeco locates the config plugin for a deco through the name
and KPluginTrader

All the rendering to QPixmap code in the Model and the Preview is
deleted as it's no longer used.
The model still has the plugin for the border size functionality.
This probably needs a change in the API to make it completely bound
to the decoration and not a global thing.
The preview code still contained all the old logic for embedding the
preview into another widget. Most of the code had been dead for quite
some time.
The only preview rendering code now is the one to render into a pixmap.
This is actually changed to render the widget directly at the right
position obsoleting the previous widget positioning code.
The no preview available label is dropped as it did not get rendered into
the pixmap at all.
Last but not least we fake that compositing is on. This has always been
the case for Aurorae themes and just looks better. Especially on Oxygen I
had always had some corruption when rendering this preview with
compositing disabled.

If the decoration package contains a ui file in ui/config.ui and
and KConfigXT xml file in config/main.xml the configure dialog
is extended by the custom values.
For this the ui file is loaded and included in the dialog's
layout. To make this possible the AuroraeConfigForm is changed
to a VBoxLayout containing the so far used FormLayout.
The configuration settings are loaded using Plasma's ConfigLoader
and attached to the widget through a KConfigDialogManager.
Marking this commit as the one which implements QML support for
Aurorae themes:

For each theme the setting can be enabled individually with the
default being enabled by default. It is completely handled
inside the MenuButton QML component so each QML theme benefits
from the option automatically, too.

When the decoration is reset a signal is emitted that the config
might have changed which the decoration can connect to for
reloading its configuration. For this an invokable method is
added to Aurorae allowing to read a config value which just
returns the QVariant.
Proper support for border sizes are added by providing the enum
in DecorationOptions, so that QML themes can use the enum values
to decide which border size to use.
The kcm is adjusted to also support these config mechanisms and
to properly load and save the border sizes for QML based themes.
Model is extended to support QML based Aurorae themes as well
the preview is able to handle it. For this a new qml component
is added which loads the decoration preview.
Buttons are exported as a global "options" in the factory.
Additionally the theme's buttons are also exported. The thme decided
based on the custom button positions property which one to use.
In the kcm the button options are also exported.
This one does not use the normal plugin infrastructure, but is part of the kcm directly. The plugin would require to have one dialog for all aurorae themes and that just does not work. Aurorae saves settings per theme.
