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

Now with the geometry being correct right after the popup is
being displayed, it can be placed directly to its exact intended
position (compared to sliding from default position because the
geometry was not known).
This should fix any issues left with the popups flying across
the screen and removes tons of code as a bonus.

This patch does this:
* moves the screen handling code from the import into
the applet baseclass, which can access the containment
available screen rect and watch for screen changes
* fixes the applet config dialog's custom screen position
setting which has a bug of always being enabled
* consolidates duplicated code in the helper import
into functions
* ensures that popups have correct positions when on
screen that does not start with y=0 (and x=0 in some
cases too)

The notifications popup positioning recently regressed
by some other changes (looks like Qt) and the popups
would fly across the screen.
The proper solution is using KWin effect but given how
close the release is, this needs to be dealt with in a
different way.
The main problem is calculating the initial popup size
because as long as the Dialog is invisible, it has an
incorrect geometry, so it needs to be positioned right
after it's being displayed. The Dialog however gets the
sizes even later, so the code now calls a slot from Dialog
that ensures the sizes are correct before the initial
placement on screen. It's not ideal but I'm out of ideas
otherwise. Plus it should be only temporary until the
KWin effect will replace it.
Besides that, it moves the custom position handling from the
QML into the C++ applet class, making it easier.

BUG: 355069
FIXED-IN: 5.5.0
Up to this patch there was a new Dialog created for each and every new
notification incoming. After the notification was timed out, it would
close and delete the Dialog, but somehow that didn't free all the memory
and over time plasma-shell could get huuuge mem usage.
Now the notifications reuse only 3 Dialogs the whole lifetime --> memory
does not skyrockets anymore.
Note that the original leak in Dialog might still be present, but
notifications do not expose it anymore.
