LGUG2Z 62e37e44cf feat(kwin): workspaces are KWin's own desktops

komorebi's workspaces exist on Windows and macOS because neither has a virtual
desktop API: switching hides every window of the workspace being left. KWin has
virtual desktops, per output since 6.8, so here workspace i is KWin's desktop i
on every monitor, and each monitor shows one. KWin shows, hides and focuses the
windows of a desktop; komorebi asks for a switch, puts a window on a desktop,
and follows what anything else does.

The Backend gets the workspace methods (ensure_workspaces, switch_workspace,
set_window_workspace, window_workspace, current_workspaces), and the fake its
desktops. The bridge reports the desktops, the desktop each output shows and a
window's desktops, and carries out output_desktop and desktop commands, typed
and tested with the fixtures like the rest. The table turns a switch or a move
komorebi did not make into a WorkspaceChange or a WorkspaceMove, and records its
own when it sends them, so that KWin's report of those raises nothing. The
window manager follows a switch with no command in reply
(adopt_workspace_change), puts windows on their desktops before a desktop is
shown (focusing a window first would take the monitor back), and loads the
windows open at startup onto the workspace of their desktop.

Per-output desktops are a kwinrc setting that is off by default, and
kwriteconfig6 was not on the PATH of the user service in a live session, so
komorebi edits kwinrc itself (kwin::kwinrc) and puts the user's value back when
it stops, also after a crash.

focus-workspace, move-to-workspace and send-to-workspace come with this commit,
since the tests of switching and moving, and vm-workspace-switch, need them; the
named and cycling workspace commands follow. vm-workspace-switch runs the daemon
against a real KWin; vm-kwin-contract checks what komorebi relies on from KWin's
per-output desktops, on a headless KWin with two outputs and no komorebi.
