for use in effects (and not only). Now a list of window quads (=window areas)
is created at the beginning of the paint pass, prepaint calls can modify
the split itself (i.e. divide it into more parts). The actual paint calls
can then modify these quads (i.e. transform their geometry). This will allow
better control of how the split is done and also allow painting e.g. only
the decoration differently. Still work in progress, but it works.
Also pass data to prepaint functions in a struct, as there is
already quite a number of them.

Effects can now have e.g. X-Ordering=10 field in their .desktop file. The bigger the number,
the later the effect comes.

is discarded. Windows that have previously been mapped and unmapped now
update properly when mapped again.

Instead, EffectsHandler itself loads the list of enabled effects (saved by the effects selector widget),
also making use of their EnabledByDefault property, so if you haven't touched the config, you'll
automatically get default effects.

As effect's full internal name is used when looking up the effect, you now need to provide the full name
(e.g. kwin4_effect_blur instead of just blur) when loading effects via dcop.

The ugly side effect of this is that there are tons of static_casts in the code now... maybe it
would be better to add effectImpl() convenience method and use that?

There's also a kwineffects library now, containing the effects API, which makes it possible to write
third-party effects.
API isn't complete yet and for now just two effects have been converted but I'm working on it :-)

above the corresponding taskbar entry.
It's a "demo" effect because in the future the taskbar itself (or any other application) should be able to
request a window's thumbnail to be rendered at a specified position. So once we'll support such
functionality, the taskbar will replace this effect.

flame, since I'm lame at graphics. Should be easy to add anyway.
Besides the apparent unusefulness this effect should be for testing
some new changes to the core.

Add ExplosionEffect which makes the windows blow up into small pieces when they're closed.
In the future this could be used only when user kills (an unresponsive) window.
