It's somewhat popular for voice communication applications to support
Push-to-Talk. This means that the process itself expects to get all of
the system input. This behaviour albeit sound does not work on Wayland
systems.
This commit adds an option to let legacy X11 applications that assume
they will be getting all information to do so until these apps are
properly ported to the XDP GlobalShortcuts.
This makes KWin switch to in-tree copy of KWaylandServer codebase.
KWaylandServer namespace has been left as is. It will be addressed later
by renaming classes in order to fit in the KWin namespace.
This is needed for keyboard grabs. If the seat is notified about a
keyboard event, it will need to forward the event to the grab object,
which in its turn will decide what should happen to the event.
In plasma code, it's more common to see `/** ... */` doxygen comments
rather than `/** ... **/`.
This change fixes up doxygen comment terminators to prevent inconsistency
issues.
Currently, we have a mix of Frameworks versions and Plasma versions in
@since tags, which leads to some confusion. Since this is an unstable
library, one cannot rely on since version tags, we are free to add,
change, and remove apis to serve best to kwin requirements. Thus, we can
simply remove all since version tags to fix mixing up different product
versions.
And make them public in th keyboard_interface, there's no point in
wrapping this in seat_interface with new approach

- Get rid of the KF5 deprecated methods related to keymap,
kwayland-server is not source compatible with kwayland, so we don't
need to keep the deprecated methods
- Move the key repeat, modifiers and keymap handling fully into the
KeyboardInterface.
- Get rid of some of the keyboard related code base from the
seat_interface.

Summary:
To better isolate the clients from each other eachh KeyboardInterface
creates it's own dedicated temporary file and sends the fd for this
temporary file to the client. This means the memory for the keymap is no
longer shared between all clients, every client has an own copy.
To support this the existing API to set the keymap is deprecated and
replaced by a new method setKeymapData which takes the content of the
keymap as a byte array. The now deprecated method which takes a file
descriptor is changed to use the new setKeymapData method. For that it
reads the content of the file.
The implementation in KeyboardInterface to create the file descriptor is
based on the implementation of KWin. As I implemented the change in KWin
(see 3b4c508ee3) it is not a problem from
GPL vs LGPL perspective.
The change includes test cases to verify that the content of the keymap
is properly passed to the client and that the memory is no longer shared.
