Air theme active task SVG improvement

Hi Developers,
I noticed that the Air theme's graphic for the active task (on the task
manager) was a pixmap, whereas the other button states were true SVG
vector shapes. As a result, the active task (appears as depressed
button) didn't perfectly match the other button states, and there were
alignment issues, such as the infamous 1px gap at the right edge of the
active task button.
So, I recreated the active task button using vector shapes instead, and
have attached the file here (./widgets/tasks.svgz). This is based on
the air theme version included with KDE 4.8.0. FYI, after replacing the
tasks.svgz file, you might not able to see the change in the air theme
until after deleting the plasma theme cache file in
~/.kde/cache-/hostname//.
I've also included this fix in the Frosty Air Theme on kde-look.org
<http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=148767> if you want to
give it a test. You may also want to consider the changes made to the
Frosty Air theme for inclusion in the default air theme, since they
improve text readability when the desktop effect "blur" is active (see
KDE bug #278861 <https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=278861>).
