[kwin/aurorae] Default to no close on double click menu button
To increase consistency with other decorations and because it changes
the behavior of the menu button in an unexpected way we default to
double click menu button doesn't close the window.

Do not set the Adapter back to powered
This seems to be some code back from the port, an
attemp to save the state.
Imho the library should not do that but rather an external
entity such the bluedevil daemon.
[wizard] Better handling when no adapter is usable
Be more careful if at any moment in the Discover page
the Adapter stops being usable.
Use KUser in KPropertiesDialog
This means no more need for getpwent(), etc -> works on Windows
Update list of forbidden headers as per spec (section 4.6.2).
Mozilla and Webkit additionally ban "content-transfer-encoding", we do the same.

IMAP: do not leave lingering tasks behind when mailbox syncing fails
When the ObtainSynchronizedMailboxTask failed, the waiting KeepMailboxOpenTask
would not unregister itself from the Parser's maintainingTask, and therefore
further tasks kept getting queued "behind" this KeepMailboxOpenTask which stuck
for all practical purposes.
This does not fix #320713 (no UI popup is shown), but at least it makes sure
that further activity can be resumed. A proper indication should be added,
definitely.

Fix tablet support on MacOS
We have not got our own tablet support on MacOS, so there is no need
to block Qt's input events when the tablet is in proximity
Thanks rustem IRC user for pointing this out!
Do not let the selection grow bigger than the image on invert
Patch by Matthias, thanks!
Fixed loading of multilayered PSD files (including 16-bit ones)
This patch does two things:
1) Fixes the order of the saved channel planes. The indexes of the
planes array should be calculated separately, not just use
displayPosition().
2) Fixes the the bug when loading 16-bit data. KoBgrU16Traits::alpha_pos
is *not* the offset of the alpha channel :) Now all the offset
calculations are done by the compiler in the templated code. At least
for RGB color spaces. We need to do the same for Lab, CMYK and Gray
spaces.
Sort part items also when just one part was loaded
This fixes sorting tables in the CSV import dialog.

Change the assistant to re-use one widget instead of re-creating it
This saves us from instantiating all the QDeclarativeFoo stuff each time
an assistant is opened, and should make things less performance hungry.
There is now only one assistant instance over the whole lifetime of
KDevelop, which is fed the actions each time they change.
This change also makes some painting-related optimizations possible,
which means we can achieve a similarly low amount of flickering with less
disableUpdates calls (which are very expensive).
Display the distance property editor for all the anchor margins
This commit adds two features to the property preview widget :
- If a property "some.long.property" is not found in the dictionary of
supported properties, then "property" is also tried. This is useful
because some users may want to type
"some.long { property: foo, property2: bar}".
- margins, topMargin, bottomMargin, leftMargin and rightMargin are added.
Due to the first point, they match "anchors.margins" and
"anchors { topMargin: 2, bottomMargin: 4 }".

Improve the sorting of the effects list
Sort by:
* category
** exclusive group
*** name
Thus we have an alphabetic order of all categories, in the categories
we have again an alphabetic order of all effects in the same group and
the effects in one group are listed at the bottom of the category.

Add support for pam-kwallet in kwalletd
This patch adds support for pam-kwallet
(in my scratch right now, to be released soon).
This is how the new pam works, and why this patch is needed:
In order to open the wallet in a secure way we have to try hard
to not send the hash on an insecure manner
This is how we achieve that:
-pam_kwallet creates a pipe.
-pam_kwallet opens a local socket listening somewhere
(/tmp/foo.socket for example).
-pam_kwallet forks+execv kwallet, passing via arguments
the sockets (pipe and local socket).
-pam_kwallet sends the hash via the pipe.
-kwalletd gets the hash and waits for the environment.
-startkde uses "socat" to send the environment to kwalletd.
-kwalletd setups the environment before any Qt code is executed.
-kwalletd resumes execution.
With this way of executing kwallet we get:
-pam_kwallet knows to who it is sending the hash (its on child).
-hash is never revealed on shared memory (dbus), since pipes
are private to the apps.
-ptrace is usually disabled so only root can see the hash on
the app memory
-no Qt code is executed without the proper environment
(same as startkde)
-if kwalletd is executed normally (not from pam_kwallet) then it is
business as usual.
The patch also comes with integration tests that simulate how
kwalletd is executed in the pam module.

[kwin] Introduce a X-KWin-Internal in kwineffect services
X-KWin-Internal should be used for effects which are either internal
to KWin and are configured at a different location in KWin. Examples
are:
* CoverSwitch - configured in WindowSwitcher KCM, but not FlipSwitch
as that one has a non WindowSwitcher mode
* window geometry - configured in moving
And it should also be used for helper effects to the overall
kde-workspace module. Examples are:
* Dashboard - required by Plasma
* KScreen - required for KScreen
* Screenshot - required by KSnapshot
Why a new category and not the already existing NoShow property?
The idea is to just filter on the effects in the list. Thus it should
be possible to show them. But NoShow is clearly intended to not be
shown at all.
REVIEW: 116754
Show always the KStatusNotifier (Status == Active)
The KDED will kill the monolithic in case there are no
adapters so in that case we won't polute the systemtray
with the Bluetooth icon.
In the case there there are Adapters but they are not
powered we want to show the systemtray so it can be
powered on again.
Improve layout of Effect View
* use frame in the scroll area
* remove needless anchoring for an Effect
* use one RowLayout for one Effect row
* add a left and right padding using the normal spacing
* Use a ColumnLayout for the center element consisting of
** name
** description
** (info)
** (video)
* Video moved into an own component
* Animations removed

tasks: Better propagation of the reason why this task failed
My original idea at the time this code was written was (IIRC, it's been ages)
roughly something like "well, whatever, use specific signals for propagating
each and every possible error". This was never implemented, of course.
Now, some errors arguably deserve a dedicated signal, but in other circumstances
the fact that something failed is enough; the remedy is usually the same anyway
-- either give up and tell the user that she's got bad luck, or try again later.
Now, it is still useful to at least show the reason to the user. What is missing
here is a piece of code which will let the user know that his mail won't load
because the mailbox couldn't be synced. This will have to come later.
In the meanwhile, let's keep track of the error message so it isn't lost. My
current motivation for this is that the communication between the KeepMailboxOpenTask
and the ObtainSynchronizedMailboxTask uses the standard Tasks API, i.e.
signalling failure via the failed() signal. Instead of extending the API to be
"magic", better add the message to the existing channels.

[kwin] Add isEffectSupported method to Effects DBus interface
EffectsHandlerImpl::isEffectsSupported performs the check whether the
effect with the given name is supported by the current compositor.
The check is the following:
* if effect is already loaded, it is supported
* if the effect cannot be found, it is not supported
* if it's a scripted effect, it's always supported
* if it's a built-in effect, we ask BuiltInEffects::supported
* for all other effects we resolve the library and the supported
method
The idea behind providing this functionality in the DBus interface is
to allow filtering in the effects KCM for the effects which are
supported by the current compositor.
In addition a areEffectsSupported method is added which takes a
list of names and returns a list of bools.

Make scalein effect (feel) quicker
Inspired by the recent slidingpopups patch this aims to make the scalein effect feel a lot quicker.
It only scales the window from 0.75 to 1. Animation duraton is shortened to match the separate "fade" effect.

PIM Agent itemChanged: Ignore part identifiers which are not the payload
This reduces the number of times the item is re-indexed drastically
Utilities
parser: small optimizations to the string/char ops
- cache string.length() when used in loops (or more than once)
- use QLatin1String/QString::fromLatin1/QLatin1Char/QChar::fromLatin1
- pass more than one string in .arg(...)
- use QStringRef when comparing parts of strings
- use string.indexOf(char) instead of cycles like: while (string.at(index) != char) index++
- merge some string concatenations
- use string.chop()

Stop depending on QtMMLWidget
It was a nice idea, sadly it was not maintained (AFAIK) and it ended up
deeply breaking KAlgebra startup. Not worth it, so long. :/

Initial port of the Nepomuk query parser to Baloo
The test suite shows that all the features work, but Baloo lacks some properties
that were available in the Nepomuk ontologies. There is also no official way of
matching regular expression.
Disable QNtrack support
QNtrack isn't ported to Qt5, but apparently compatible enough to be
built against using Qt5. When running the code, this blows up
spectacularly, as the Qt4 library is loaded into kded5.
Porting QNtrack probably isn't hard, but as long as that hasn't
happened, let's rather not crash kded5.
