Summary:
ksmserver autostart had a system where processes, such as plasma, could
block the startup phase from moving on.
It is currently entirely unused.
It's very difficult to use properly, plasmashell has to block startup
before ksmserver moves on to phase 1. Racey at best.
I did hack it to work, and it does make a surprising positive
improvement to bootup. Worth exploring the idea properly, but implemented
better.
We should be able to get the same results by
blocking and waiting for the DBus name in the autostart desktop file to
become registered rather than having a ksmserver-specific solution.
Test Plan: Compiles, can still login

Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D16042
This adds a user switcher borrowing elements from the lock screen and log out dialog.
It will be used instead of KRunner as main UI for switching sessions. The sessions runner
will stay there for the time being.
CHANGLOG: The main user switcher UI has been completely re-designed
