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	11 years ago

[wayland] Add a QPA plugin for kwin_wayland

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
