Summary:
The new connect syntax has several advantages over the old syntax:
(a) Connecting with the new syntax is faster;
(b) It is compile time checked.
There are still a few places where the old connect syntax is used, e.g.
connecting to QML buttons in the Desktop Grid effect.
Test Plan:
Have been testing this patch for ~2 weeks, haven't noticed any
regressions.

Summary:
KWin's window management powers are not as discoverable as they could be--particularly tiling, which by default has no visible UI and no keyboard shortcuts. Resolving this issue is highly relevant to {T6831}.
This patch re-assigns the {key Meta arrowkeys} shortcuts that are currently used for `move zoomed area` (which are pretty esoteric, infrequently-used actions), adding {key ctrl} to their shortcuts. This allows us to use their valuable {key Meta arrowkeys} for more useful and commonly-used window management actions:
- {key Meta Left}: quick tile window to the left
- {key Meta Right}: quick tile window to the right
- {key Meta Up}: quick-tile window to the top
- {key Meta Down}: quick-tile the window to the bottom
The patch also sets some default shortctuts for minimize and maximize:
- {key Meta PageDown}: minimize window
- {key Meta PageUp}: maximize/de-maximize the window
Test Plan:
Do a clean build
`make test` (no new test failures)
Reboot
Create and log into a new user account
- {key meta up} tiles the active window to the top
- {key meta down} tiles the active window to the bottom
- {key meta left} tiles the active window to the left
- {key meta right} tiles the active window to the right
- {key meta PageDown} minimizes the active window
- {key meta PageUp} maximizes and de-maximizes the active window
- {key meta ctrl up} moves the zoomed area up
- {key meta ctrl down} moves the zoomed area down
- {key meta ctrl left} moves the zoomed area to the left
- {key meta ctrl right} moves the zoomed area to the right

Summary:
By changing all kcfg to have arg="true" we can pass in the same
KSharedConfigPtr into all effects. This allows to have fake config in
the tests and in the planned effect demo mode.
Also it means that we don't have to hardcode the name kwinrc into the
files. In the configs - where we cannot access the effectshandler - we
use the define KWIN_CONFIG which gets generated based on the compile
time arguments.

Without the componentDisplayName the shortcut dialog takes the name of
the application e.g. Systemsettings or "KDE Control Module", but we want
it to be KWin.

This removes all the hacks to add kwin4_effect_ to the name of the Effect
and adjusts the desktop files of the effect configuration's parent
component.
Note: the scripted effects still start with kwin4_effect_ prefix.

Instead of using EffectsHandler::sendReloadMessage we generate the dbus
interface in each plugin and call the reconfigure slot directly. That way
it's more type safe and we don't need to link kwineffects from the
configs.

There are no advantages for the effects KCM to have all the effect
config modules in one plugin.
By having a plugin per effect we can use the KPluginTrader to easily
find the configuration plugin for a given effect and load it.
To make this possible the following changes are done:
* config_builtins.cpp is deleted
* add_subdirectory is used for all effects which have a config module
* toplevel CMakeLists.txt contains the sources again for the effects
which have a config module, but effects which don't have a config
module are still included and thus the macro is still used
* plugin created for the config module, name pattern is:
kwin_effectname_config
* plugin installed to ${PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR}/kwin/effects/configs
* desktop file adjusted to new plugin name and keyword removed
* desktop file converted to json as meta data and no longer installed
* Uses K_PLUGIN_FACTORY_WITH_JSON
* Macros for config are dropped from kwineffects.h
REVIEW: 116854
* "" needs to be wrapped in QStringLiteral
* QString::fromUtf8 needed for const char* and QByteArray
* QByteArray::constData() needed to get to the const char*
Many headers included KLocale to use i18n and co. But those methods are
defined in KLocalizedString and not in KLocale.
With KF5 klocale.h does no longer include KLocalizedString causing lots
of compile errors.
from kwin to kcm_kwin4_effect_xyz . That broke global shortcuts configuration.

"MakeTransparent" to "Translucency" so that it matches its visible name.
