Summary:
Currently code base of kwin can be viewed as two pieces. One is very
ancient, and the other one is more modern, which uses new C++ features.
The main problem with the ancient code is that it was written before
C++11 era. So, no override or final keywords, lambdas, etc.
Quite recently, KDE compiler settings were changed to show a warning if
a virtual method has missing override keyword. As you might have already
guessed, this fired back at us because of that ancient code. We had
about 500 new compiler warnings.
A "solution" was proposed to that problem - disable -Wno-suggest-override
and the other similar warning for clang. It's hard to call a solution
because those warnings are disabled not only for the old code, but also
for new. This is not what we want!
The main argument for not actually fixing the problem was that git
history will be screwed as well because of human factor. While good git
history is a very important thing, we should not go crazy about it and
block every change that somehow alters git history. git blame allows to
specify starting revision for a reason.
The other argument (human factor) can be easily solved by using tools
such as clang-tidy. clang-tidy is a clang-based linter for C++. It can
be used for various things, e.g. fixing coding style(e.g. add missing
braces to if statements, readability-braces-around-statements check),
or in our case add missing override keywords.
Test Plan: Compiles.

Summary:
The test DontCrashUseractionsMenu (Waylandonly) found an issue in our
screen handling implementation in the QPA. The code exposed a short time
frame between the dummy screen getting destroyed and the first screen
being added. This could result in a crash of KWin.
There is actually no need to implement Screen on top of Wayland screen.
KWin has all the knowledge, so we can also base this on top of the
Screens API.
Advantages:
* no delays due to Wayland roundtrips
* handle screen getting removed (was a TODO)
* handle resolution changes (was a TODO)
The new implementation has a disadvantage that it destroys and readds
all screens whenever something around the screen changes. This shouldn't
be an issue in practice as it's only for the internal QPA and thus only
affects KWin internal windows which is placed in global coordinates
anyway. If it turns out to be a problem we need to track better the
screen changes - so far those were not tracked at all.
Test Plan: Run a few unit tests which change screens

On build.kde.org the autotests started to crash on tear down due to a
newer Wayland library. The reason is that the KWayland::Client::Outputs
are destroyed after the internal Wayland connection is destroyed.
This change parents the created Outputs to the Registry like the other
objects. To ensure that the KWin::QPA::Screen doesn't have a problem
with that, it is changed to a QPointer - nullptr checks are already in
place.
Hopefully that will fix the crashes on build.kde.org, but there is a
chance that more errors are hidden.
Summary:
If a user specifies the QT_WAYLAND_FORCE_DPI env variable, KWin uses
it to force a logicalDPI, just like QtWayland.

This makes QCursor::pos and QCursor::setPos function correctly. KWin
actually wouldn't need it as KWin has the KWin::Cursor replacement, but
it allows Qt internal API to have it function correctly and also the
zoom effect does use QCursor::setPos.
This introduces an own QPA plugin for KWin. QtWayland's plugin is not
a good solution for KWin as QtWayland is meant for Wayland clients and
not for a Wayland server. Given that it makes more sense to have a very
minimal QPA plugin which supports the use cases we actually have.
With our own QPA plugin we should be able to improve the following
areas:
* no need to create Wayland server before QApplication
* Qt::BypassWindowManagerHint can be supported
* no workaround for creating OpenGL context in main thread
* sharing OpenGL context with Qt
* OpenGL context for Qt on libhybris backend
The plugin supports so far the following features:
* creating a QPlatformWindow using KWayland::Client (ShellSurface)
* creating a QPlatformBackingStore using a ShmPool
* creating a QPlatformOpenGLContext with Wayland::EGL
* or creating a QPlatformOpenGLContext which shares with KWin's scene
* creating a QPlatformScreen for each KWayland::Client::Output
* QPlatformNativeInterface compatible to QtWayland
