closeSession returns only when the task is complete, a sound API, but we
need to remember to increase the timeout.
If a user has unsaved changes in kate, they could handle that prompt
after an indefinite period of time. We would still want to shutdown
afterwards.
Currently plasma-shutdown would abort if it thought ksmserver timed out.
Not seen in real life, just spotted in code review.
Doing so takes up extra space and I don't think it's useful information
anyway. If there's only one media player going, the user already knows
which one it is.
KProtocolInfo handles only protocols KIO knows but apps can also register to be
a URL scheme handler independently of this.
This patch makes the location runner also query for the preferred URL scheme handler
when no known protocol is found. It also prefers the scheme handler over the helper
protocol since a service has a name.
While at it, also format the protocol "exec" using DesktopExecParser to avoid
showing placeholders like '%u' to the user. Also use PreferLocalFile for "go to".

Considerations:
* In any point of time, the only layout info client might need is about:
- a single layout (the current one)
- list of all layouts configured (e.g to fill context menu entries)
There is no chance it might need to asqure some random layout info
which is not current.
* To get current layout Display Name, client shouldn't have to asqure
the current layout itself first - such dependecy makes code based on
async DBus API unnecessary complicated.
* Shall the layouts context menu be ever desired, it would be easy to
implement by adding both Name lists (Short/Long) and Index getters to
the API.
KWin/P-D parts:
impr: Keyboard Layout DBus API: drop excessive method arguments
No need to reimplement switching to the next layout logic in every QML
code - implemenation is already there on KWin/P-D side
KWin/P-D parts:
impr: Keyboard Layout DBus API: expose switchToNextLayout() method
KWin Wayland initially misused the DBus API and passed Long layout Name
via currentLayoutDisplayName() method which is wrong.
Instead, the new currentLayoutLongName() property should be added,
and Short Name be passed via currentLayoutDisplayName() as it is for
X11.
When layout changes, the country code (or short layout name) should be passed via DBus
from compositor to this C++ QML plugin, and then to a keyboard applet for
indication

KWin commit: "feat: expose keyboard layout Short Name via DBus"
On X Kwin's lifespan used to be managed by XSMP. This accidentally broke
in 5.20 as we made kwin start before ksmserver for speed purposes and
wayland preparation.
This leaves kwin to be killed by the display manager as the X connection
closes, but this can lead to deadlocks.
BUG:428817
On wayland kwin's lifespan is mapped to the lifespan of the ksmserver
binary. This is problematic as it makes our entire xwayland robustness
redundant if we ultimately rely on an application that /has/ to run in
xwayland.
