Description
-------

Add runtime platform support to KWindowInfo

Main idea of this change is to only pick the X11 implementation in case
that the application is running on the X11 platform. So far it was a
compile time switch which meant that if compiled with X11 support but
not running on the X11 platform it would have caused runtime errors.

To make this possible a KWindowInfoPrivate class with a dummy
implementation is provided. This is used as d-ptr for KWindowInfo.
Thus there is one generic implementation and the implementation of
KWindowInfo is no longer ifdefed for the supported platforms.

The platform specific code can inherit from KWindowInfoPrivate and
overwrite the dummy method implementation. KWindowInfoPrivate provides
a factory method where the platform specific implementation can be
hooked into. There we can have both compile time and runtime checking.
If there is no platfom specific implementation available the dummy
implementation is used.

NOTE: THIS CHANGE BREAKS THE WINDOWS AND MAC BACKEND!

Windows and Mac is excluded from build. At the moment they get the
dummy implementation. Unfortunately I don't have the possibility to
compile the changes and thus don't dare to touch the code. Fixes from
the teams are highly appreciated.

Testing
-------

Unit test from https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/115190/ is still working. Now you can guess why I wrote that test ;-)


Thanks,
