--the new implementation will provide all Activites
and everything else will be updated automatically
--also a default option is introduced which describes
which layout will be used for the free layouts and
the user will be able to alter this easily
--Latte can now support multiple Views in the same screen
edge. Views as separated in THREE Layers of priorities.
1. Views from Shared Layouts have highest priority and they
are first to occupy a screen edge
2. Views that are set OnPrimary screen occupy a screen edge only
if there is NO other View from a Shared Layout applied already
3. Views that are Explicit to specific screens occupy a screen
edge only if there is NO PRIMARY view already loaded
--make the top/bottom borders identification much
smarter in order to identify in they must be drawn.
There are many corner cases that these borders should
be drawn, for example when a vertical top aligned
panel is half shown its top border because of a
top panel
--the user can now choose for vertical views to
stick their edges at the top or bottom screen edge
and ignore any top or bottom views accordingly. These
options are available in the Transparent Settings
area for vertical views and in advanced settings
mode.
--the orphaned-central layout should NOT be loaded
when it has already been loaded as SHARED layout for
other CENTRAL layouts in a MULTIPLE LAYOUTS environment

--Plasma 5.18 introduced a new dbus interface in order
for external apps to be able to publish to Plasma how

both its availableScreenRect and availableScreenRegions
and this is also Multiple Layouts aware at runtime.
