D5505: Keep startup notifications launcher-sized when inserting at launcher position.

[Eike Hein]

hein created this revision.
Restricted Application added a project: Plasma.

REVISION SUMMARY
  When "Keep launchers seperate" is disabled, startup notifications
  replace launchers at their original position. This changes the
  layout for this mode to keep the startup notification item the size
  of the launcher item it replaces (the visual result being a throbber
  on the launcher instead of the launcher being replaced by a "task"
  with a throbber - iow, the expansion to task size is delayed until
  a window appears).
  
  This helps the minimize the jarring visual fallout in cases where
  we can match the startup notification to the launcher, but not the
  window to the startup notification (due to broken/missing window
  metadata), as no longer will two task-sized items co-exist - instead
  the throbber comes and goes on the launcher, seperate from the task
  item for the unidentified window. It also minimizes visual fallout
  if app startup fails or the app merely creates an SNI instead of a
  window.
  
  This change was suggested by Netrunner Linux, which ships a Task
  Manager with "Keep launchers seperate" disabled by default.
  
  Depends on https://phabricator.kde.org/D5504.
