--First steps in order to support mulitple Tasks
applets in the same dock and panel.
--Step1: migrate values from Containment to Task
applet.
--Step2: deprecate Task applet options that are
found in containment
--Step3: provide multiple dynamic Tasks tabs in
settings
--update implementation to use "root.location"
instead of root.position
--update implementation to use "root.alignment"
instead of root.userPanelPosition
--plasma durations can mess up the Latte animations
experience a lot. We now use our own set animations
durations which are independent of what the user
chose for plasma animations speed.

--remove no-needed anchors changes state for Task.IconItem
and at the same time fix the size calculations for IconItem.
There were cases for Views that did not use the parabolic effect
at all and Tasks contained single windows tasks (that did not
have launchers assigned), these specific tasks were
appearing at minimum icon size 16px. even though the user
had set much greater values.
--a new Wheel action is introduced to Tasks and
the user can now choose to disable wheel actions
only for tasks OR cycle through grouped tasks OR
upwards cycles trhough grouped tasks and downwards
minimizes them.
BUG:416096
--enabledForApplets and lengthPadding for indicators
has now moved to indicators responsibility to handle
--as a consequence usesPlasmaStyle has been removed
from indicators API. The corner cases that indicators
conflict with plasma theme applets should be handled
differently and in a different way
--requesting from users a different way to remove
the Latte Tasks plasmoid if they want to is not
a good hig. Reenabling the classic ways to remove
Latte Tasks. The user can now use the applet tooltip
to remove it or by right clicking it in Latte
edit mode. Because of this the Tasks->Recycling
button is not needed any more.

--update the publish task geometries code
in order to identify also when the dock
has hide itself or is fully shown properly
and update the published task geometries
accordingly
--screenEdgeMarginEnabled value is not really needed
to applets and indicators. Only the margin value
applied is of importance in order to place themselves
properly.
--use screenEdgeMargin in order to support more border
styles for custom background component that paints
the underneath panel background for smart coloring.
--this way in multiple layouts mode when switching
different layouts the tasks/launchers are sliding in/out
only when we switch between different activities in
the same layout and NOT when switching between different
activities in different layouts
--meaning to not activate the previews window in that
case. Single windows should be activated immediately
after left click, previews are not necessary in that
case.

--separators are only usings the external margins
between items. In the past it was also consider
the indicators internal padding. This is not
needed and it was creating too big empty
spaces with no real reason.
--through level.requested options each indicator
instance can request specific repositioning for
each icon. Very good example for this is the
Win7 style indicator
--when qml uses software rendering checks should be
added in order to not hide the visual elements. This
is taking place now in a more concrete way and checked
also that tasks with badges or not are still shown
BUG:411037
FIXED-IN:0.9.2
--when qml software rendering is enabled the ShaderEffects
do not work. Hiding sources in that case is hiding
from the user tasks and applets with no visual feedback.
Sources in that case should hide themeselves and give
the user the minimum which is the original drawn contents.

--The user from Tasks,Badges can choose a more prominent
color for notification badges (usually reddish). In case
the user has not enabled that option(default) then the plasma

Scrolling: ENABLE/DISABLE
--Manual Scrolling: DISABLE/PARALLEL/HORIZONTALANDVERTICAL
--Auto Scrolling: ENABLE/DISABLE
BUG: 407779
--when dragging a new applet over the view
the responsiveness is now improved vastly
--the new architecture uses two different
DragAndDropAreas. One which is the old one
and is used when dragged launchers, urls and
separators. The second is used only when
applets are dragged into the view
--the visuals for adding launchers/applets have
been improved and a circular visual is preferred
now instead
--case 1: first left applet neighbour of Tasks was not
clearing its zoom if the mouse was entering too fast
the Tasks applet from the applet direction
--case 2: first task in Tasks was not clearing its zoom
when the applet triggering the clear zoom effect was too
far from the Tasks
BUG: 401294
--previous code was creating an endless loop during
launchers syncing when there were windows between
the launchers.
example to reproduce: add a Discover launcer and
at the previous indexes there should be some
launchers that have open windows but their launcher
is assigned to different activity. Drag afterwards
the Discover launcher to first indexes e.g. 0,1
--plasmoid.screenGeometry is costly under Latte environment
because it supports multple layouts in multiple activities.
By using the View::screenGeometry the calls are minimized
almost totally.
Summary:
Fixes an issue where the shell plasmoid fails to load when QtGraphicalEffects 1.2 is missing from the system. This causes various issues like the task manager applet failing to load.

--info badges updated their colors in order to attract
more attention on them. Most themes etc. use for their
negativeTextColor a reddish color so that is a good
match for this.
--this is side-way path for mouse events and
more specific the mouse pressed, released
events to be sent from parent window to its
qml containment part. This way it is possible
to keep the original plasma applet behavior
such as original plasma tooltips and provide
Latte specific functionality such as animated
clicks from indicators.
NOTE: An investigation - testing took place in
order to check if this approach could be also used
for mouseMove events to be used for applets parabolic
effect. The result was that this was not possible because
there were too many signals and too much calculations
too identify for which applet the signal belonged to.
The parabolic effect was not fluid in that case and
could not catch up.

Summary:
When iconSize is not big enough, center aligned shortcut badges look better than top-left aligned ones.
BUG: 406037
Test Plan:
- When iconSize < 48: shortcut badges are center aligned
- When iconSize >= 48: they are top-left aligned
For example, with iconSize = 32:

Summary:
