Type into any window: fake input when no text field is focused

Browse Source 
- KWinFakeInput (org_kde_kwin_fake_input v6, offered by KWin to the
  input-method process): keysyms with real modifier keys held
- The KWin backend uses the input method in text fields and fake input
  everywhere else, so shortcuts, terminals and the desktop get keys
- Text rules (auto-capitalization, double-space) only apply in fields
- Always Show setting keeps the keyboard up without a text field
