Summary:
This brings numerous advantages such as:
- easier admin configuration with drop-ins, overrides and multiple
hooks throughout (and only having to learn one tool)
- session cleanup on exit, avoiding that occasional part where shutdown
hangs
- startup that actually knows when things are up
- race free autostart and DBus activation at once
- logs that rotate are split by service and usable
- resource management through slices and cgroups (the part I want)
Over the past 2 years I've been trying to tidy up and encapsulate the
relevant parts of startup into the binary plasma-session so that we can
just runtime swap out that one part and supporting both paths will be
easy.
Support is toggleable via cmake flag, as it seems like it should be a
distro decision, especially as we will require a specific systemd with
the xdg-generator.
KDED/kwin/other services are attached to the relevant repo.

squash
This existed to include the .kde directories in the search paths for
ghostscript, which clearly hasn't been the case for years, but the code
has kept getting ported and migrated.
At some point this has got broken, startplasma-x11 doesn't call this
path and we've not had any bug reports. We may as well clear this
legacy.
Summary:
Since ksmserver was split, start-plasma launches plasma-session which in
turn invokes ksmserver.
Test Plan: No code changes, only a method rename

Summary:
Fixes regression from the startkde C++ re-write which made ksmserver
start the kscreenlocker in wayland session, resulting in the double
lockscreeens.
Test Plan: after applying patch I only get one lockscreen
