Additional TabBox Mode which allows to switch between all open
windows of the current selected application. By default Alt+tilde
is used which is on qwerty just one key above tab. For non-qwerty
layouts the shortcut is unfortunately not convenient.

connecting to a kwindowsystem signal that causes instantiation of
kwindowsystemprivate breaks window focus.
this match makes it use internal kwin signals to track the embedding window geometry

Window Strip is only for Plasma Active, so we don't want to see
it in the UI for Window Switcher Layouts as it would not properly
work on the desktop anyway.
Accomplished by a simple property definition on the service file.
A new service type is introduced which is used by the KCM to find
all available window switcher layouts. This makes it finally possible
to have 3rd party window switchers.
Also the tabbox finds the packaged QML file through the service
definitions.
Desktop switcher is not yet in packaged version (UI to configure
is missing).

This allows to select whether TabBox should exclude minimized windows,
or only show minimized windows or just don't care about minimized windows.
This is the default and the behavior as it used to be.

This includes the delegates, the layout configuration for the delegates
and the custom view for the TabBox.
This can now finally be done as desktop tabbox is based on QML, too.
Replaced by a TabBox layout. The effect is still there as it
can be used for desktop switching (which is not yet ported to layouts)
and as a proxy effect for CoverSwitch.
The users who use BoxSwitch will be migrated to the new layout.
A new QML item "ThumbnailItem" is registered to the TabBox. The
C++ implementation finds the EffectWindow of the TabBox and adds
itself to the EffectWindow.
While rendering the EffectWindow the information for all registered
ThumbnailItems are extracted and the thumbnail is rendered on top
of the EffectWindow.
This has obvious limitations like you cannot put other QML items
on top of the thumbnail. Nevertheless it works well enough to
be a possible replacement for e.g. BoxSwitch effect.
When compositing is disabled an icon is rendered instead of the
Thumbnail.
One TabBox Layout inspired by BoxSwitch Effect is added. For the
KCM small pre-rendered items are used.

All the default layouts (informative, compact, text, small and big icons)
are rewritten in QML and replace the ListView used before. The old code
is still around for the desktop switching modes which are not yet ported.
Next steps include to update the configuration module to not show now
obsoleted settings as well as providing a better way to choose the layout.
