The timer was used to skip ahead of parsing and to compress prop
updates to handle width/height changes atomically. This achieves
both by moving pixmap load into the polish phase after those are
guaranteed to be done.
This fixes a bunch of flicker all over the place since 150ms is
obviously far beyond the frame time budget on 60 hz, but we can
usually easily fit into one frame on hot caches.
For some applets the status is bound to a complex expression that can be
re-evaluated a lot. This ends up causing a lot of unnecassary updates.

ContainmentPrivate::createApplet may return null pointer
(eg. when desktop is immutable), so check the pointer before
emitting appletCreated.

BUG: 356428
Plasma framework's FrameSVG class uses cached regions for efficiency. However
Coverity caught a mis-use of QCache in FrameSvg::mask(), which could lead to a
use-after-free situation. (CID 1291560)
Basically, any pointer passed into QCache::insert must be assumed to be deleted
after insert() has been called -- we can't then return that pointer to the
caller.
Moreover we were simply returning a pointer to calling code that had been (and
still would be) owned by QCache, which is unsafe as it can be deleted at any
time. The fix in both cases is to make a local copy of the QRegion from out of
the cache and return that.

Should help in the future if there are similar problems like the recent
one when Plasma wouldn't load because it failed to load the ScriptEngine
and nobody knew why it fails to load.
plasma-scriptengine.desktop defines the property "X-Plasma-
ComponentTypes" as Type=QStringList. When reading it using
KPluginMetaData::value(..) it expects a QString back. This
used to work but regressed in kcoreaddons in commit
cfd18cf09b559a050fd6a2680ad4e71eeb950383.Making it read the
property as a stringlist works and is correct and also fixes
Plasma startup.

We were checking for Composite at compile-time but not at runtime causing a crash
when Composite has explicitly been disable in which case Damage might still be availab.e

the CompactApplet file from the shell package
defines the behavior of the poopup applets in
the panel (it implements an internal dialog
and all that jazz)
implementing a simplified systray(both the one
for the phone and a separate one for the desktop),
i noticed that a containment may have different
ideas on how to expand an applet: the systray would
have for instance a single popup dialog and put all
of its applet full representtions in the same Dialog,
this lets containment representation to override
that file (*if* won't get abused, that's the only
thing makes me a bit on the fence about this)
It would make possible also fairly different designs
that have been proposed in the past, such as the bug
sidebar similar to the "charm bar"
Have to keep an eye opened if having the file list
changing with the path may be an issue, but
shouldn't as ChangeableMainScript already does
something similar.
