inputmethod: Allow forcing the display of the input method

Aleix Pol Gonzalez requested to merge work/apol/kwin-allow-forcing-vk into master

This makes it possible to show the input method when using a client that doesn't support Wayland input methods (e.g. Xwayland).

This adds 2 dbus API entry points:

  • activeClientSupported property: That tells us if the current client doesn't support text-input-v*
  • forceActivate method: forces the activation of the input method. This configures the input method in a state that we can use to forward the input method's keystrokes to the client, emulating a hardware keyboard.

BUG: 4399911
