Supported Features:
* move/resize
* active/inactive
* special window type
* window decoration as missing in AnimationEffect
The animations are cancelled when they go into an invisible state (e.g.
desktop changed, minimized) and are set again when the window becomes
visible.
Where a transition is useful, the window gets animated, e.g. start/finish
of move resize.

Main motivation for this rewrite is the fact that the login effect had
been designed under the assumption that there is only one login splash
window. This assumption does no longer hold with the QML based splash,
which creates a window per screen.
By using a JavaScript based effect, the animation effect is implicityly
used which supports animating multiple windows at the same time in a
better and safer way.

Effect uses framebuffer blit to copy the zoomed are in a scaled
way into an offscreen texture and render the texture after the
rendering. This means instead of two rendering passes we now need
only one pass, but require the blit extension.
Due to changes in build system we have always either OpenGL or OpenGL ES.
This allows to remove the KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL_COMPOSITING define. In the
effects the define is kept as KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL which can be used in
future to build also an XRender only effect system.
Nuno has to decide whether the new option will become default or not, for now it is disabled by default.
You can enable it in effects kcm, now Login effect has a configuration dialog.
It does not (yet) however check for non-fullscreen effects, so they might look weird when this is enabled.

invert.cpp refers to the apparently removed kwinshadereffect.h,
so it's probably missing out on some sort of porting activity.

The shadow effect is known to be broken since at least 4.5.
It is unfortunately in a state which makes it difficult to maintain
and the architecture has some serious drawbacks. Therefore it is the
best solution to replace the effect with a new and better
implementation. For more information about the new implementation
please see the discussion on KWin mailinglist:
http://lists.kde.org/?l=kwin&m=129607406517609&w=2
This also "fixes" all existing bug reports about the shadow effect.
Most of the bugs will really be fixed when the new shadow system is
implemented, if not it is a new bug and a new report should be created
for it.
Please excuse that we go this unnormal approach to mark bugs as
fixed with code removal.

The usefulness of the snow effect is doubtable and it is rather
difficult to port the effect to the new rendering architecture
introduced with GLES. It is probably easier to rewrite the complete
effect from scratch, therefore it is removed for now.
I might consider readding it for 4.7.
This kind of "fixes" snow related bug reports.

The effect has been known to cause some problems for quite some time
and is not really useful. Therfore dropping the effect.

It now uses a GLShader for GLSL shaders and pushes it using the
ShaderManager.
It does not work with the nouveau driver plus GLES, but it works
with fglrx + desktop GL 2.x, so I assume it is a driver problem here.
It uses a generic vertex shader and because of that it needs to
mark all windows which are inverted as transformed.
There is currently a conflict with Lanczos (or thumbnails) and with
the desktop in cube effect.
Currently working:
* cube slide
* basic cube
* rotations
* reflections
Not working:
* Cube Inside effects
* Reflection plane (needs to be done in a shader)
* cube caps
* sphere/cylinder
* filled in areas in multi desktop
its own directory, cleaned up the effect config macros and renamed
"MakeTransparent" to "Translucency" so that it matches its visible name.

Also slightly redo the #define's for effects, now it's:
- #ifdef KWIN_HAVE_COMPOSITING to check whether there's any compositing support at all
- #ifdef KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL_COMPOSITING to check for OpenGL-based compositing
- #ifdef KWIN_HAVE_XRENDER_COMPOSITING the same for XRender

being v2+ (right now it says just GPL, which according to GPL itself
means any GPL). Decoration clients will come later.
