Rather than relying on `Plasmoid` from deep down in `NotificationItem` code,
which is not possible when run inside the popup.
In `Globals` we have access to our own `plasmoid` property directly.
This commit re-implements the critical notification to be inside the
notification popup, not the notification item. This yields several
benefits:
- It's the semantically correct place to implement it since critical
notifications don't appear in the history, so there's no reason to
implement it in a component that's re-used for the history view
- The line extends down to the bottom for critical notifications that
have buttons, job progress, text input fields, files, or screenshots
- Simpler code overall
This reverts commit be7efa5ec2.
This reverts commit 93355636de.
This was not the best way to implement the feature, as it failed to take
into account the fact that critical notifications can have more content
than just text. A better place to implement it would be in the popup
itself.
We get intermittent user complaints and bug reports about notifications
not being visible enough, especially on large or cluttered screens.
This commit attempts to remedy the situation by tinting the header for
on the left side for critical notifications using the color scheme's
"warning" color. Only critical notifications receive this treatment
since they're the only ones that the user really does need to see.

On wayland we need focus to copy to the clipboard.
As we don't want the notification to take focus indiscriminately,
it listens to mouse events of its children and only accepts focus
if it sees a button press. When the cursor leaves the popup again,
everything is reset.

The context property version is slower to access and won't be supported
in Qt6. Let's port away from it and use the singleton version instead.
Here was my full process for making this change:
1. Made the change with `find . -name '*.qml' | xargs perl -pi -e 's/units\./PlasmaCore\.Units\./g'`
2. Verified no more occurrences with `grep -r " units."`
3. Made sure this didn't change any comments in a silly way by inspecting the output of `git diff | grep "+ " | grep "//"`
4. Manually inspected the full git diff to make sure there were no other unintentional or silly changes (there were none)
5. verified that all changed files have the PlasmaCore import with the correct name with `for FILE in `git status | grep modified | cut -d ":" -f 3`; do grep -q "as PlasmaCore" $FILE || echo "$FILE needs the PlasmaCore import"; done`
Ensures built-in functionality like double- and triple-clicking text works.
Also lets us get rid of the custom text selection handling, replacing it with
an even filter class.

This begins the process of porting plasma-workspace to PlasmaComponents3. At
this point, only the relatively easy work is done. Every file not ported
now has been given the reason for still using PC2 in a comment on the import
line so you can see at a glance what the blocker is by running
`grep -r "org.kde.plasma.components 2.0"` in the repo.
Everything is tested and there are no breakages or functional regressions. In
the process, a few unused imports are removed.
Here are the remaining PC3 omissions blocking what's left from getting easily
ported:
- No Highlight
- No ListItem
- No PageStack
- No ContextMenu
- No QueryDialog
- No ModelContextMenu
- TabBar has no left and right tab states
- ToolButton has no built-in method to show a menu when clicked
This adds a quick reply feature with a text field inline in the notification popup.
An action named "inline-reply" will spawn the text field and a NotificationReplied signal is emitted then.
There's additional kde hints for changing the placeholder text (defaults to "Type a reply..."),
submit button text (defaults to "Send") and submit button icon name (defaults to "document-send",
that paper aeroplane icon).
Summary:
This uses the new KQuickCharts framework to render the notification timeout bar as a small
circular progress bar, around the close button.
Video:
{F7818131}
Test Plan:
notify-send -t 15000 test will first show a notification with no indicator, then once the
timeout gets to 10s or less it will show a decreasing circular progress bar.

Currently, a notification is considered "unread" when it was created or updated after the last time the user opened the history.
To alleviate this, when the notification popup is hovered, e.g. because the user wanted to drag an image out, select some text,
or open the "More" menu, it is considered read. It will still end up in the history but will not needlessly show the "unread notification" bell icon.
Moreover, job finished notifications are always considered read, as they are either from long-standing jobs which the user is likely aware of,
or confirmation of short tasks the user doesn't need explicit confirmation about. For example, extracting an archive in Dolphin,
I get an "Extracting (Finished)" but I don't want to explicitly acknowledge that notification because I can just enter the folder that was just created in Dolphin.
This surely doesn't fix the underlying problem of notification expiration and history, and the user might just interact wiht some
tray icons or the clock and not actually deal with the notification popup but this is imho an acceptable stopgap until a proper
solution is found, which won't happen in time for Plasma 5.17 anyway.

- Fix leak and crash when job goes away before being shown
- Some emit and signal fixes
- Always create services watchers
- Update unity job percentage in destructor, fixes the progress lingering around when disabling in settings
Also tell the world that we're merely proxying a job progress
- Don't hardcode KIO error codes
- Honor "show critical on top of full screen" setting
- Don't show generic "dialog-information" icon, it's pointlessly generic
* Make dataengines work fully standalone
* Fix panel icon sizing
There's still an issue with the popup size when resizing the vertical panel smaller so it collapses
* Implement keyboard navigation for the list with focus hacks...
Delete key closes notifications or groups, Arrow left/right expand/collapse groups, Enter invokes default action, if any
* Fix DND times that are supposed to be hidden showing
ModelContextMenu doesn't respect "visible" property
* Move "Notifications" header to ListView header so it scrolls away and leaves more room for the notifications in systray popup
* Fix finished jobs in history showing as failed when app is closed
* Don't remember apps that spawned jobs, only for notifications
* Use CriticalNotification window type (patches pending)
It is supposed to broadcast application job progress to multiple interested parties.
However, effectively it was just plasmashell. Cut the middleman, including its never finished and unused UI,
and talk to plasmashell directly.
The applicationjobs dataengine is adjusted to use the new infrastructure instead.
Since it works only in the same process now, Unity launcher API is used to at least broadcast basic
application progress information for use in e.g. Latte Dock.
Also, introduce JobViewServerV2 and JobViewV3 APIs which are using desktop entries for identification rather
than application names, and more importantly are extensible using a QVariantMap hints, so adding new
fields in the future should be significantly less painful with Frameworks, Applications, and Plasma all having
their own release schedule. :)
* Ship some more default rules in plasmanotifyrc
* Improved do not disturb menu (add "for 4 hours" and "until disabled")
* Expand unread notifications by default, overall improved expansion/collapse handling
* Show unread count in panel and reset when plasmoid is closed again
* Move notification sanitizer and its test from dataengine to lib
* Load pixmaps into model also for files and limit their physical size
* Enforce maximum limit for notifications (1000...)
- Rename some of the classes:
NotificationServer -> Server (there's namespaces, you know)
NotificationModel -> NotificationsModel (so it's plural like JobsModel)
- Introduce NotificationGroupingCollapse
- Wire up PulseAudio-qt for eventual notification silence in dnd mode
- Touch up notification looks
- Add indentation and "line" for grouped plasmoids
- Rethink "show more" button to be at the end
- Fix buttons overlapping
- Remove NotificationDelegate item and do those few adjustments in FullRepresentation
- Cleanup job details, handle when processed > total
- Use States {} more
- Show low urgency popups by default but don't add them to history
- Rework compact representation animations a bit
For some reason they often got stuck
- Implement do not disturb mode for applications
- Add fallback timeout to ensure notifications eventually timeout
Otherwise when disabling dnd mode you will get spammed
and we would also keep apps running indefinitely waiting for the notification to close
- Install plasmanotifyrc with some sane defaults
So far only lets Spectacle show its screenshot notifications in dnd mode
- Introduce Closable role rather than hardcoding that behavior everywhere in the view
- Better app identification/grouping for jobs
- Be more lenient about app identification (firefox will match Firefox, too)
- Cleanups
- Add basic do not disturb mode
Can set a time until it enabled, persisted across reboots
Whitelist for apps missing right not
Inhibition API not wired up yet
- d-pointer JobDetails
- Use KFilePlacesModel for prettier destUrl reporting "Copying to Home"
- Expose default action in history as button
- Improved right-to-left language support
- Let NotificationServer just lurk (without registering a service)
- Catch when plasmoid is deleted and stick to another one
Our dear friend Notification plasmoid has slipped the surly bonds of Earth
to touch the face of eternal preservation in Git history. It leaves a huge
emptiness in the hearts of all of us who loved it, many who here its friends.
Originally concveived in 2011 as a "New QML based notifications plasmoid
for mobile", it quickly outgrew its creator's vision and became a vital
component of the Plasma Desktop. When the new kid on the block arrived in
the form of Plasma 5, it showed its willpower to survive this stark transition
and served us for another half a decade. It taught us to seize every
opportunity to increase productivity and improve user experience,
yet it became evident that it reached its limits and so on April Fools' Day 2019
its heart beat for the last time.
Farewell!

Summary:
drop most of the positioning code, drop the animation of the
window position. position the popup in the signal handler of
visibleChanged as we are sure there the size is final and the
first expose event didn't arrive yet.
at that point we are sure the size is the final and correct one
the animation is supposed to be done by the morphingpopups effect
instead.
Test Plan:
notification positions are always correct now, both on X11 and
Wayland.
Unfortunately on x11 the notification typ doesn't seem to pass,
so they are correctly animated only in wayland

We've been having the configure button on notifications for a long time but so far it would
only ever invoke KNotification configuration UI with no way for an application to provide
its own, more versatile or extensive, UI.
When an action named "settings" is present in the notification the "configure" button will
instead invoke this action.

Summary:
This uses the feature introduced here [1] on KNotifications, so default
actions don't appear as a regular action button. Instead, they are
activated by clicking on the notification itself.
If the default action is not set, it uses the previous behavior of close
on click.
This changes both the notification popup and the notifications inside the
plasmoid.

Our notification popups are huge compared to other platforms,
this tightens and streamlines the layout a bit.

It's nice that we offer to configure an application's notification settings
from a notification. Usually, however, you're lost in a dialog of notifications
and you have no idea which event you just saw.
CHANGELOG: When pressing the "configure" button on a notification, the actual
notification type will be pre-selected in the upcoming notifications list
