By moving the query for effects into an own thread the
startup does not have to wait till all effects are loaded.
The thread moves the loading of the effects after the
Window Manager and Compositor has been fully initialized.
This is possible as EffectsHandler is fully functional even
without any effects.
The compositor ensures that at least one frame is rendered
before the started thread returns which makes the complete
startup more responsive.

The Plasma package structure contains a subdirectory "contents".
Furthermore we have to use locate instead of locateLocal to find
system wide installed packages and adding some debug output for
the case that the script cannot be found.
The scripted effects can define their configuration through a
KConfigXT file in the same way as a packaged Plasmoid. Because of
that the ScriptedEffect also uses the Plasma::ConfigLoader to load
and manage the configuration. The config group used for the scripted
effect is like any other effect the "Effect-name" group.
In difference to the Plasmoid JavaScript API effects are not allowed
to change their configuration.
Scripted effects follow the Plamsoid package structure and the effect
loader recognizes a scripted effect at the according line in the desktop
file. If it is a scripted effect a different loader is used which
instantiates an object of the ScriptedEffect class. This class inherits
the AnimationEffect and exports the animate method and the EffectsHandler.
Property invokes virtual methods returning false by default. Deleted
reimplements the isDeleted and returns true. Client returns true for
isClient. Method is not called isManaged as this is already used
inside Client.
If possible use the property to Toplevel or Client instead of the
pure virtual methods. This makes it easier to get a stable ABI.
Adding new methods to the class no longer requires to add a pure
virtual method.
From a performance point of view this change should not matter.
Most EffectWindow methods are not invoked during the repaint chain.
But only in response to an event like a window got added. There the
overhead does not really matter as well the previous implementation
made strong use of dynamic casts which are also not knwon for being
very fast.
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.

Each effect is able to declare itself as currently being active,
that is transforming windows or painting or screen or doing anything
during the current rendered frame.
This change eliminates the hottest path inside KWin identified by
callgrind.

Due to changes in build system we have always either OpenGL or OpenGL ES.
This allows to remove the KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL_COMPOSITING define. In the
effects the define is kept as KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL which can be used in
future to build also an XRender only effect system.

This commit merges the two signals clientClosed() and unmanagedClosed() to windowClosed() which
is now provided by Toplevel.
The approriate slots in effects.h and effects.cpp were merges as well, since they did the
same.
The direct method calls of the method windowClosed() in SceneOpenGL and SceneXRender were
removed and are now connected to the appropriate signal in windowAdded().
The method windowGeometryShapeChanged() from the class Scene is now a slot. It is now connected to the signal geometryShapeChanged() which is sent from Toplevel instances Client and Unmanaged.
All direct method calls were deleted.
Since the TabBox functionality is not feasible for any platform KWin is
used on (e.g. tablet PCs), a build option is added to decide, if the
TabBox functionality should be build or not.

Move the funtionality of TabBox from class Workspace to class TabBox to make
it possible to deactivate this feature by setting a compile flag.
All methods and variables are now provided by class TabBox and calls from other
classes go directly to TabBox.
The code for configuring the shortcut keys has also been moved to class TabBox
from kwinbindings.cpp.
Since the functions were moved from Workspace to its own class ScreenEdge
and the functionality was formerly called ElectricWindows, the functions still
had the old names. They are now consistenly renamed without redundand naming.
The function calls were updated as well in all classes where ScreenEdge is used.
This commit change the screen edge function calls to be called in the
new class ScreenEdge. The old methods are still in Workspace and will
be removed in a further commit.
Since the funtionality of TopMenu did no longer work in KDE4 this feature was
removed from Workspace. Every reference to it was removed as well as commentaries
and documentation.

While closing a window it might happen that we emit the windowOpacityChanged
signal although we dont have an EffectWindow.
Related to commit 1ce3f9fc53aa93a7536d43d0c936266f0ae21b65
It is not used by any effect, so we save one complete go through
all effects pass on each window damage.
The functionality which could be provided by this hook can also be
implemented using the window damaged signal.
This has never been implemented properly. There is only the boolean
indicating that the desktop layout is dynamic but it is nowhere set
or used. So better remove it.
First a signal is emitted when the user starts a move/resize operation.
During the move/resize operation each geometry change emits an update signal.
Last but not least a finish signal is emitted.
This eliminates the specific method for geometry updates in drawbound resize
mode.
The signal includes the state for horizontal and vertical maximize state.
It would be better to use the enum fro, KDecorationDefines but we don't want
to depend on decorations library.
Wobbly windows is adjusted to use this new signal - it is the only effect
interested in maximize state change.
This needs to be improved in core. Currently ClientGroup does not yet
emit signals, as it would be difficult to connect them. Nevertheless
the effects dependency should be removed.
EffectsHandlerImpl just forwards the signals from TabBox. In order
to have a valid pointer to the TabBox, the TabBox is now initialized
before compositing in Workspace.
EffectsHandlerImpl connects to the Workspace signal clientActivated.
The emitting of the signal is slightly moved from before the activation logic
to after the activation logic. This might change behavior in the scripting
component, but the previous code looked wrong.
Client and Unmanaged use a signal to notify that they are about to be closed.
The EffectsHandlerImpl is connected to those signals and emits the appropriate
windowClosed signal to which the effects are connected.
All previously existing windowAdded methods are renamed to slotWindowAdded.
EffectsHandlerImpl is connected to Workspace's clientAdded signal, which is
emitted a little bit earlier than the previous direct method call. This might
change behavior.
Another signal is added to Workspace to signal that an unmanaged is added.
The first signal used between EffectsHandler and Effects.
The signal is actually emitted by the EffectsHandlerImpl and only
the interested effects connect to this signal.
EffectsHandlerImpl itself is also notified by a signal from Workspace,
allowing to remove one of the many if (effects) checks.
Since the EffectFrames have been moved into KWin core nothing in the
Effects lib actually used Plasma. The only remaining method is moved
to core as it's not used in the Effects. The Effects itself still
link against Plasma, so nothing changes for them.
The Plasma includes in the kwineffects header seemed to pull in
quite some additional headers, so the includes in some effects have
to be adjusted (most often KConfigGroup). This should speed up the
compilation of the library and the effects.

This provides a significant performance improvement especially for Present Windows.
Whenever a lanczos resampling is done the resulted texture is cached, till the
window is damaged or a texture of different size is required. This means that
for a taskbar thumbnail the resampling only occurs once unless the window is damaged
and for present windows it only occurs when the windows are resized and then only
after the windows have already been moved. Highlighting windows does not cause
a resampling any more.

for use in effects (and not only). Now a list of window quads (=window areas)
is created at the beginning of the paint pass, prepaint calls can modify
the split itself (i.e. divide it into more parts). The actual paint calls
can then modify these quads (i.e. transform their geometry). This will allow
better control of how the split is done and also allow painting e.g. only
the decoration differently. Still work in progress, but it works.
Also pass data to prepaint functions in a struct, as there is
already quite a number of them.
