Workspace emits a signal when the initialization finished and
interested parties can connect to this signal to perform post
init actions. That is everything that does not have to be
performed to have a completely working Window Manager.
As an example loading the scripts is moved into this post init
phase.

Options loading is split into three parts:
* reparse configuration
* loading of non-compositing related options
* loading of composited related options not needing CompositingPrefs
At startup the reparsing of configuration is done through a Thread
to gain a little bit of less waiting.
Before something else accesses the KConfig for the first time we
wait for the thread to finish and perform the other two loading
operations of Options.
The settings depending on CompositingPrefs will only be invoked
if a compositor is going to be needed.

When the Workspace is shutting down the compositor is torn down
before Clients and Unmanaged are released. This means that there
is no need to create the Deleted windows.
Furthermore creating the Deleted manipulates the stacking_order
while Workspace dtor loops over this list to release all clients.
This may cause crashes.

Workspace::addDeleted swaps the Client with the Deleted in the
stacking order. For Unmanaged windows the Deleted is appended
to the stacking order which is the same layer.
When the deleted is closed the window is removed from the stacking
order.
The result is that a deleted window is no longer raised above all
other clients.

BUG: 158262
FIXED-IN: 4.9.0
The common usage of stacking order is to loop through
the list and find a specific Client. All these usages
still need to find a Client. For that the loops are
adjusted to first cast the Toplevel into a Client and
continue if the current item is no Client.
At the moment all entries in the stacking order should
still be Clients as the Deleted are not yet added.
The method is nowhere inside KWin called, nor used as a slot.
It's also not used from any of the KCMs and the method does not
do what the name says. It just shows and hides a window as big
as the screen geometry.

This adds extensive support information about the running instance
by printing out all used options, the compositing information
including GL platform, loaded effects and active effects.
The debug output can be retrieved through D-Bus:
qdbus org.kde.kwin /KWin supportInformation
or through a KWin Script (use desktop console):
print(workspace.supportInformation())

Behavior is now like all xinerama related options are enabled.
There seems to be no valid reasons to run multi screen without
xinerama support and even if a user would wish to do so she can
just disable xinerama in xorg.conf.
Furhtermore thanks to KWin scripting it is possible to achieve the
behavior as it used to be with the options disabled. E.g. it is
possible to span a window in fullscreen mode over all screens.
This change is in accordance to the discussion on kwin and plasma
mailinglists:
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/plasma-devel/2012-January/018542.html
This KCM has been implemented by Tamas Krutk in the scope of
Google Code-In.
It is a simple KCM just listing all available scripts and allowing
to import/export them.
This will be further extended alongside the planned scripting changes
in 4.9.
QElapsedTimer doesn't have a constructor that initializes the
private members. This means that calls to isValid() will depend
on uninitialized data when the timer has never been started.
elapsed() and restart() will also use and return values
computed from uninitialized data.
This fixes several valgrind errors.
It previously worked only when struts changed, this makes it work
e.g. when moving a window between desktops that have different
struts, or when sending a windows between differently sized screens.
The desktop layout (number of rows) should be
controlled by the window manager as it is also
responsible for the number of desktops and the
names of them.
The setting for the rows is moved from the pager
UI to the virtual desktops KCM. The desktop layout
is set when KWin starts and updated by the KCM.
With this change there is no process claiming the
manager selection for pager any more. This means
the KDE Plasma Workspaces are no longer compliant
to the complete section of _NET_DESKTOP_LAYOUT in
the EWMH.

Since there was a crash caused by calling a function of
the not yet initialized class Tiling, the creation was
just moved some lines up. The problem does not occur anymore.
BUG: 278740
Some functions and variables were given more proper names and are now
following the naming scheme. 'Redundant' naming information was also removed.
