Plasma had an entire text editor for the script engine in process.
The method for loading this was very convoluted, it loaded a QML file
(in plasma-desktop!) which contained an Item(!) which then loaded a QML
component that showed a widget dialog.
It also means loading a very heavy lib KTextEditor in ShellComponents
which is very heavy. This will get loaded in things like the logout
greeter, which is super slow on the pinephone.
We already had the concept of evalating a script remotely, we can just
hook up the print statement and move the whole executable out.
Technically this is an API break on the plasmashell DBus API, but
pragmatically going from void -> something on the return type isn't
going to break anything.
Summary:
edit mode menu action
edit mode dbus property for systemsettings
containmentlayoutmanager goes out of edit mode only when the whole
plasma app loses focus, so the panel controlled doesn't make it go out
of it
Test Plan:
iaction shows in context menu, works
property exposed on dbus works

After feedback from the VDG, use a single config fuile again,
this changes the behavior in the following way:
* layout switch after switching lnf from the kcm is optional
* the swiitch is permanent, the old layout is lost after switch
Summary:
- Serializing the desktop layout for current activity
- Support for different config groups
- Introducing the mechanism for the future API versioning
- Loading the desktop from the serialized data
- Added debugging output just for comparison with regular layout.js
- Splitting V1 scripting functions into a separate class and file
- Loading the panels
- Disabled the debugging output

Summary:
ShellCorona provides a new DBus method "activateLauncherMenu". If that
is invoked it will look through all panels for an applet which has
X-Plasma-Provides with org.kde.plasma.launchermenu. If that also has
a global shortuct it gets activated and no further applet is searched.
The idea behind this DBus call is to provide a way to KWin to activate
the main appliction launcher when the Meta key is pressed.

loadScriptInInteractiveConsole requires user interaction which blocks
some purposes, like setting the desktop background from an app.
This runs a given script directly from a passed string without any
prompts.
