Summary:
The VirtualDesktopGrid is ported to the new VirtualDesktop objects. The
grid consists now of QVector<VirtualDesktop*> rows and a QVector of
those rows.
This change requires to adjust the code using the VirtualDesktopGrid.
This mostly affects VirtualDesktopManger. The methods for toLeft, above,
next, etc are now all operating on VirtualDesktop with the uint variants
- if still present - only delegating to the new method. The Functor
objects are also adjusted, though mostly still providing the old API for
compatibility.
In KWin core only one now ambiguous call is adjusted (useractions) and
the desktop grid usage in EffectsHandlerImpl is adjusted. Other usages
are not yet adjusted and need porting to fully get rid of the old
uint-based API.

Summary:
This is the first change for a larger virtual desktop refactoring. So
far for X11 virtual desktops are just a number. The current virtual
desktop is a number between 1 and the count of virtual desktops.
Similar a Toplevel is on the virtual desktop by setting the number as a
property.
In the long run we want to change that and allow to have windows on
multiple virtual desktops and also support virtual desktops on Wayland.
On Wayland a virtual desktop will be an object.
As a first step a VirtualDesktop class is introduced which currently is
just a glorifed wrapper around the x11 desktop number. The
VirtualDesktopManager now holds a pointer to the current desktop and the
available desktops are a QVector of VirtualDesktops. The implicit
mapping to counting of desktops is removed. Though the internal API is
still completely count based. In follow up changes this will be turned
into being more and more VirtualDesktop based. At least the Core should
be completely transferred to be VirtualDesktop based instead of uint
based.
Test Plan:
virtual desktop auto test still passes (test coverage 97 % line,
83 % conditionals)

The functionality from KActionCollection is not used at all. It's
just for setting the object name. By not using the ActionCollection
to create the QAction and connecting the slot, it's also possible to
use the new compile time checked connect syntax.
The define KWIN_SINGLETON adds to a class definition:
public:
static Foo *create(QObject *parent = 0);
static Foo *self() { return s_self; }
protected:
explicit Foo(QObject *parent = 0);
private:
static Foo *s_self;
There is an additional define KWIN_SINGLETON_VARIABLE to set a different
name than s_self.
The define KWIN_SINGLETON_FACTORY can be used to generate the create
method. It expands to:
Foo *Foo::s_self = 0;
Foo *Foo::create(QObject *parent)
{
Q_ASSERT(!s_self);
s_self = new Foo(parent);
return s_self;
}
In addition there are defines to again set a different variable name and
to create an object of another inheriting class.
All the classes currently using this pattern are adjusted to use these
new defines. In a few places the name was adjusted. E.g. in Compositor
the factory method was called createCompositor instead of create.

The ownership for virtual desktops is moved from Workspace into a new
VirtualDesktopManager. The manager is responsible for providing the count
of virtual desktops and keeping track of the currently used virtual
desktop.
All methods related to moving between desktops are also moved from
Workspace to the new manager, though all methods related to Clients on
Virtual Desktops remain in Workspace for the time being. This is to have
the new manager as independent from KWin core as possible.
An rather important change for the handling of virtual desktops is that
the count and the id of a desktop is now an unsinged integer instead of
an integer. The reason for that is that we cannot have a negative count
of desktops as well as it is not possible to be on a desktop with a
negative identifier.
In that regard it is important to remember that a Client can be on a
desktop with a negative identifier. The special value for a Client being
on all desktops is handled by using -1 as a desktop. For the time being
this is not adjusted but instead of comparing the virtual desktop ids one
should prefer to use the convenient methods like isOnDesktop and
isOnAllDesktops. This would allow in future to internally change the
representation for on all desktops.
