Summary:
So far TabBox used highlight windows by passing window ids around through
an X property. This doesn't work on Wayland where we don't have window
ids for our TabBox and the Wayland windows.
This change introduces a new Effect::Feature for HighlightWindows which
the HighlightWindowsEffect provides. The EffectsHandlerImpl has a new
method to highlightWindows which it delegates to that effect if it is
loaded by invoking a new performFeature method.
The TabBoxHandler now passes the highlighting to the effects system
instead of updating the x11 property. Thus this works on Wayland and
at the same time improves the X11 side by no longer having to go through
the property protocol.
Test Plan: Verified that Alt+Tab highlights the windows on Wayland correctly.

Summary:
The Effect class is extended by three new virtual methods:
* touchDown
* touchMotion
* touchUp
The methods return a boolean value so that the events can be filtered
out. E.g. an effect which has also a mouse grab installed wants to
filter out all events, other effects don't need the events exclusively.
This is a difference to how e.g. keyboard and pointer events are handled.
But is more close to how KWin's internal input event passing works and
makes it easier to get touch event: one does not explicitly has to grab
the events. It's also closer to Wayland where all input events are
available.
As a first example the Present Windows effect is adjusted and allows to
activate windows through the touch screen. As much code as possible is
shared with pointer input.

Summary:
A new method to tell the effects system whether the compositor scene
is able to drive animations. E.g. on software emulation (llvmpipe) it's
better to not do any animations at all.
This information can be used by effects to adjust their behavior, e.g.
PresentWindows could skip transitions or effects can use it in their
supported check to completely disable themselves.
As a first step all scripted effects are considered to be unsupported
if animations are not supported. They inherit AnimationEffect and are
all about driving animations.
The information whether animations are supported comes from the Scene.
It's implemented in the following way:
* XRender: animations are always supported
* QPainter: animations are never supported
* OpenGL: animations are supported, except for software emulation
In addition - for easier testing - there is a new env variable
KWIN_EFFECTS_FORCE_ANIMATIONS to overwrite the selection.

It's created together with input, so that the input mechanismn already
has a way to check whether screen is locked.
Effects doesn't hold a member variable any more and instead uses the
singleton instance.
Being able to monitor whether the screen is locked is useful not only
to the effects system but overall in KWin. Thus to make it possible to
use it from more locations as a first step it's moved into dedicated
source files.
Summary:
Rational: unredirect fullscreen windows is a weird beast. It's intended
to make fullscreen windows "faster" by not compositing that screen. But
that doesn't really work as KWin jumps out of that condition pretty
quickly. E.g. whenever a tooltip window is shown. KWin itself has a
better functionality by supporting to block compositing completely.
The complete code was full of hacks around it to try to ensure that
things don't break.
Overall unredirect fullscreen has always been the odd one. We had it
because a compositor needs to have it, but it never got truly integrated.
E.g. effects don't interact with it properly so that some things randomly
work, others don't. Will it trigger the screenedge, probably yes, but
will it show the highlight: properly no.
By removing the functionality we finally acknowledge that this mode is
not maintained and has not been maintained for years and that we do not
intend to support it better in future. Over the years we tried to make
it more and more hidden: it's disabled for Intel GPUs, because it used
to crash KWin. It's marked as an "expert" option, etc.
It's clearly something we tried to hide from the user that it exists.
For Wayland the whole unredirect infrastructure doesn't make sense
either. There is no such thing as "unredirecting". We might make use
of passing buffers directly to the underlying stack, but that will be
done automatically when we know it can be done, not by some magic is
this a window of specific size.
Test Plan:
Compiles, cannot really test as I am an Intel user who never
had that working.

Summary:
This fixes a regression introduced with a1afeded6a.
The connections were setup every the windowShown signal got emitted.
This caused effects to get multiple singals and start multiple animations
which then do not get cancelled correctly.
The incorrect behavior was most visible in the translucency effect which
did not cancel the move animation and the window stayed translucent.
BUG: 366081
Test Plan:
New test case which simulates the behavior of the translucency
effect.

Summary:
This allows effects to animate when a window is shown again and when
a window gets hidden but not yet closed/destroyed. This situation
happens on X11 for e.g. auto hiding panels and on Wayland for pretty
much any window which properly unmaps (windowHidden) prior to destroy.

Summary:
Toplevel::window() is the actual X11 window. This makes it difficult
to use as the generic identifier for both X11 and Wayland. The Wayland
ShellClient already had a windowId() which is now added to Toplevel as
a virtual method. On X11 (Toplevel default) it returns the window().
The method window() now returns XCB_WINDOW_NONE for classes without
the Toplevel::m_client, such as ShellClient. Thus it allows to properly
check whether we are on Wayland or X11.
The code is adjusted to use windowId where a generic id is needed and
to properly check whether the window is valid before using it where
a window() is used.
This also fixes at least one additional unknown issue in
Workspace::setActiveClient
where the windowId of a Wayland client was passed to X11.

So far updating the cursor image was not really defined. It was possible
to use the cursor image from the wayland seat or have a custom set cursor
image. But there are no rules in place to decide which one to use when.
With this change a dedicated CursorImage class is introduced which tracks
the cursor image changes on the seat, on the decoration, in the effects
and so on. In addition it tracks which is the current source for the
image, that is whether e.g. the cursor from the seat or from effects
override should be used. Whenever the cursor image changes a signal is
emitted, which is connected to the signal in AbstractBackend.
Based on that the backends can directly show the image. The existing
code in the backends to install a cursor shape or to install the cursor
from the server is completely dropped. For the backend it's irrelevant
from where the image comes from.
A new feature added is that the cursor image is marked as rendered. This
is then passed on to the frame rendered in the Surface and thus animated
cursors are finally working. Unfortunately animated cursors are broken in
Qt (see https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-48181 ).
When unloading all effects we should make sure that also the ones
scheduled for loading are canceled. For this a new method clear()
is added to the AbstractEffectLoader and all inheriting classes which
clears the current load queue. For the scripted and plugin effect loader
it should also cancel the future, but that's not yet implemented.
Some effects do X11 calls in their cleanup code through external
libraries (e.g. KSelectionOwner). As we cannot control that we need
to ensure the effects are unloaded prior to destroying the Xwayland
connection.
-use qstringliteral only when necessary (i.e. not in concat or comparison)
-use qbytearray instead of qstring when dealing with latin1 input and output (glplatform)
-use qstringref to extract numbers from strings (glplatform)
-define qt_use_qstringbuilder to optimize all string concatenations
-anidata: use ctor init lists, add windowType member initialization

The signals operate on AbstractClient nowadays, so we can have one
implementation for both Client and ShellClient.
Only X specific connections are only done for Client.
AbstractClient::mainClients is virtual and overriden in Client,
allMainClients has only a common implementation in AbstractClient.
In activation.cpp we still need one case where a temporary ClientList
needs to be constructed. Once transients are fully migrated that should
be removable again.
This is a temporary workaround for bug 349992 which causes freezes
during startup as kwin and kamd dead lock each other on DBus.
To workaround we don't call Activities::create and check in every
usage of Activities::self() whether the pointer is valid.
As a result kwin_wayland now starts pretty fast.
CCBUG: 349992
If the ShellClient got created for a Qt internal window, we try to
find the QWindow and if we get one, we use the geometry directly as
it got set by KWin in the first place.
Also a windowId() is added to ShellClient which can be used by the
effect system to find an EffectWindow. If it's an internal QWindow
we just use that window id. For other clients we still need some
smart solution.
The signal might be emited by Workspace just before a Client gets
destroyed. In that case the argument carried by the queued event is no
longer valid and causes problems. In EffectsHandlerImpl we can queue
it without problems as the EffectWindow also stays valid if the Client
gets destroyed. The referenced Deleted gets destroyed with a deleteLater,
thus will be after the signal is emitted.

The change is mostly straight forward. Effects are straight forward
adjusted. Client::findModal is moved up, this causes still a few
dynamic_casts to Client. Mostly because Workspace::activateClient still
operates on Client.
The ShellClient is a Toplevel subclass for a
KWayland::Server::ShellSurfaceInterface. It gets created when a new
ShellSurfaceInterface is created and destoryed when it gets unmapped.
So far the usage is still rather limited. The ShellClient is opened
at position (0/0). While it's possible to pass pointer events to it,
it's not yet possible to activate it, so no keyboard focus.
The AbstractBackend registers itself in the WaylandServer allowing
external users to easily get to the backend and not needing to test
manually which backend is used.
The xcb_cursor_t returned by xcb-cursor library might be broken. If we
set such a broken cursor directly in the create window call it will fail
with a BadCursor value causing effects to break.
This change works around this problem by creating just the window and
moving the possible breaking call into a change window call. That will
still fail, but the window is working.
In addition it performs a safety check by only installing the cursor
if it's not XCB_CURSOR_NONE.
