* new binary kwin_wayland
* kwin_wayland supports starting the X-Server it needs to connect to
* Wayland (client) connection is hold in a thread
* Support for using fullscreen shell interface
* Wayland related code split out into a new kwayland lib

Additional non Wayland related KWin stuff:
* use of libepoxy
* use of atlas texture for window decorations in OpenGL compositor
* support for EGL_EXT_platform_x11 and EGL_EXT_platform_wayland 
* support for GLX_INTEL_swap_event in glxbackend

Cheers
