David Edmundson 29d0078909 Ensure we can set per-window properties before the intial commit 
In the current implementation we cannot use a LayerShellQt before the
shell surface is created.

At the moment a shell surface is created, the constructor is run and
then QtWayland commits the current state. This means the compositor
configures the window before a client has any chance to set anchors or
margins.

This works whilst we're just being a simple fullscreen window, but won't
scale for plasmashell in the future.

This patch makes LayerShellQt::Window always creatable, and we can set
and cache properties before the platform window is created, just like
one can on QWindow and XDGShell properties.

This also makes it less potentially crashy as ::get always returns a
valid result, and
sets up the public API to be QML-able as an attached property in future.

LayerShellQt

This component is meant for applications to be able to easily use clients based on wlr-layer-shell.

Here you can read about what the protocol does and how shells work: https://drewdevault.com/2018/07/29/Wayland-shells.html

Report issues in this component here: https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=layer-shell-qt

Usage

CMake

To use it from a CMake project you'll need to:

find_package(LayerShellQt REQUIRED)

Then it will offer us the target LayerShellQt::Interface that we can link to to get access to this framework.

C++

You can use LayerShellQt::Shell::useLayerShell(); to enable it before any clients are created.

The class LayerShellQt::Window will give us access to surface-specific settings. We can get it by using LayerShellQt::Window::get(window) on whatever QWindow we need to tweak.
