The model data contains a new role ConfigurableRole. This is used to
decide whether the configure button is available.
The value for the role is set by searching for a KPlugin which has the
effect's service name as X-KDE-ParentComponents. All available configs
are expected to be in kf5/kwin/effects/configs/ and are located through
the KPluginTrader thus binary effect configs need to provide json meta
data.

The new X-KWin-Exclusive-Category property is read from the service
and provided to QML through the ExclusiveRole. If an effect has such
a role the CheckBox is replaced by a RadioButton. The radio buttons of
an exclusive group take care that only one effect of the group can be
enabled. In addition the radio button acts like a check box. If one
clicks the checked radio button it gets unchecked.
At the same time this change removes the hard coded functionality for
the exclusive group of desktop switching effects. It's all handled
dynamically by creating the ExclusiveGroup when needed. For each
category there can be one ExclusiveGroup.

For each effect added to the list the KWin DBus interface is queried
for whether the effect is supported.
By default all effects are set to supported, thus if the DBus service
is not around (e.g. compositing disabled) it is assumed that all effects
are supported. In fact it's not possible to figure it out at all.

Using spacing around the header and no hardcoded color by using
KColorscheme to get the base color and use the same alpha modulation
as KCategoryDrawer.

Let's try getting the KCM a little bit less scary by properly
hiding everything the user doesn't have to care about. The prominent
desktop effects KCM only contains the list of all the effects which
can be configured and nothing else. Only exception is the disabled
check after failed GL to make this easier for the user.
All the "advanced" settings are moved into a new KCM called
"Compositing" which is put under the hardware component in
systemsettings. This contains all advanced settings including
* whether compositing is enabled at all
* backend
* animation speeed
* scale filter
* unredirect fullscreen
* color correction

When we click into the CheckBox the following effects are being enabled:
*kwin4_effect_desktopgrid
*kwin4_effect_presntwindows
*kwin4_effect_dialogparent
If one of the above effects gets disabled, then the checkbox is unchecked.
Our CheckBox can detect if our effects are enable at the start time.
Only ONE of the following effects can be active at the same
time.
*kwin4_effect_slideEnabled
*kwin4_effect_cubeslideEnabled
*kwin4_effect_fadedesktopEnabled
