Review request for kwin and Plasma.


Changes
-------

adding Plasma to review groups as it adds an optional build dep to workspaces and is \
also interesting for plasma


Description
-------

Adding BAMF support to KWin

BAMF is a library used by Unity to match windows to their applications.
This is also pretty useful for KWin, possible uses are:
* better filtering on whether two Clients belong to the same application
* Using the application name as caption in case the window title is bad
* Getting better icons for window switcher/decorations, mostly important
  for high resolution displays as icons provided through X property do
  not include the large icons (e.g. 128x128)
* Using application name for application menu button

So far support is added to get the KDesktopFile for a Client and this is
exported to KWinEffects.

BAMF is probably also useful in other areas of the workspaces, e.g. for
libtaskmanager.
