Review request for kwin and Plasma.
Changes
-------
- Atom name updated
- Plasma dashboard now sets own window class
- KWin now detects dashboard by its window class (no more hacks)
- removed magic number for blur effect, moved to kwineffects and changed in blur \
effect, too
- call reconfigure() in effect CTOR instead of duplicating code
- implemented DTOR
- brightness/saturation values are now handled as percentage
- fixed blur region
- removed german translation in .desktop files
Summary
-------
This patch adds a new KWin effect that allows to modify the appearance of the Plasma \
dashboard. It has a KCM configuration dialog where you can adjust brightness, \
saturation and blur of the dashboard background. Blur depends on the loaded blur \
plugin.
I also patched the Plasma dashboard to recognize the loaded effect: If the effect is \
loaded, the dashboard draws its background fully translucent. In order for the \
Dashboard to recognize wether the effect is loaded, I added support for the effect in \
Plasma::WindowEffects from kdelibs.
The dashboard detection in the effect itself is hackish right now. As soon as Plasma \
adds a proper class to the dashboard window, I will replace the hack with a \
class-check.
This addresses bugs dashboard, detection and hackish.

Testing
-------
Code compiles, plugin loads, plugin configuration dialog is registered in KCM \
Workspace module under "all effects". If the plugin is enabled, its settings apply to \
the dashboard.
