This huge commit is a nearly complete rewrite of the Dolphin search
code. It implements most of the improved Dolphin search UI/UX as
designed and discussed in a collaborative effort by Kristen McWilliam,
Jin Liu, Andy Betts, Tagwerk, a few others and me.
See https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/issues/46.
# Notable changes
- A toggle to change the search tool is provided as most contributors
deemed that useful in
https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/642#note_985112.
- The default search is changed to filenamesearch for maximum
reliability.
- Removing all search parameters will take users back to the view state
prior to starting a search instead of keeping the search results open.
- The UI for choosing file types or modification dates has been made
more powerful with more granularity and more options.
- Most search parameters can be configured from a popup menu which
gives us extra space for extra clarity.
- Labels and help buttons as well as hyperlinks to settings makes sure
the user always knows why some search parameters are unavailable in
some contexts.
- Chips show important search parameters while the popup is closed.
They allow quickly removing filters.
- The titles of the search and the input field placeholder message
change to make clear whether file names or file contents are searched.
- When the user actively switches the search tool, whether content
should be searched, or whether to search everywhere, this is preserved
for the initial state of the search bar when the user opens it the next
time after restarting Dolphin.
# Architecture
- The new DolphinQuery class is independent of the UI and contains all
search parameters modifiable in Dolphin as easy setters and getters.
- DolphinQuery objects are also used to update the states of every
component in the search UI. There is now a clear separation of UI and
search configuration/DolphinQuery.
- DolphinQuery is responsible for exporting to and importing from
search URLs.
- The search UI always reflects the currently configured DolphinQuery
no matter if the user changed the UI to change the DolphinQuery or
loaded a DolphinQuery/older search URL which then is reflected in the
UI.
- I tried to simplify all classes and their interaction between each
other as much as possible.
- I added some tests

If searchBox is not initialized, it can't be updated properly
with setSearchPath due to some buttons not existing.
There is also just no need to update it if it's not initialized.
Make sure we check for it's initialized during setting the search path.

When a bar is toggled visible this usually happens because the
user might want to use its functionality now. However, if bars
appear without animation or at a location the user is not
currently looking at, they might not notice that they have appeared
at all.
An animation makes it more likely that the user notices the change
and can then use the newly made visible component.
Another reason for animations for showing or hiding of components
is that it can be disorienting for users when panels or bars
suddenly appear or disappear without animation. There is no visible
movement then, so the user might not know what happened if they
didn't concentrate or blink at that moment. The newly appearing or
disappearing component might also displace other components which
can make it difficult to find what one was just looking at.
These bars animate now after this change:
- Search panel
- Filter bar
- Status bar
This is implemented by extracting the animation code from
SelectionMode::TopBar into a new abstract base class
AnimatedHeightWidget. This class is now also used in
SelectionMode::BottomBar and the animating code there was removed.
These bars are left in Dolphin that stay without animation:
- Menu bar (Would probably need to be implemented in KXmlGui)
- Tool bar (Would probably need to be implemented in KXmlGui)
- Tab bar (Needs a different appraoch because it already inherits
QTabBar and therefore can not inherit AnimatedHeightWidget)

The idea behind KMoreTools was to point the user at external tools for a given job.
It provides a rather complex framework for that, including suggesting not-yet-installed tools.
The UX behind that isn't great though, which somewhat deep menu hierarchies and a somewhat arbitrary list of tools.
Most KDE apps have moved away from it, with only Dolphin remaining.
Instead provide direct integration with relevant KDE tools (Filelight, KDiskFree, KFind)

The signal writeStateChanged() was not working because it is not connected
to slotWriteStateChanged() slots when the active view changes. Replace the
signal with direct calls to the slots.
Also, do not delay openRequest signal in DolphinSearchBox::slotSearchTextChanged.
It's no longer required.
BUG: 440366

Currently, the URL navigator is not updated when the search box is cleared. This MR restores the URL, by closing and reopening the box.
The call for emitting closeRequest() on pressing Esc has been replaced with emitCloseRequest(). The wait duration before starting a search has been reduced to 500ms to increase responsiveness.
Also, the bugfix for BUG: 423328 is slightly incorrect and causes the search term to not be displayed when opening a saved search for the first time. As a better solution for this bug, DolphinSearchBox::setText() now updates the text only if the text has changed.

* speeds up incremental builds as changes to a header will not always
need the full mocs_compilation.cpp for all the target's headers rebuild,
while having a moc file sourced into a source file only adds minor
extra costs, due to small own code and the used headers usually
already covered by the source file, being for the same class/struct
* seems to not slow down clean builds, due to empty mocs_compilation.cpp
resulting in those quickly processed, while the minor extra cost of the
sourced moc files does not outweigh that in summary.
Measured times actually improved by some percent points.
(ideally CMake would just skip empty mocs_compilation.cpp & its object
file one day)
* enables compiler to see all methods of a class in same compilation unit
to do some sanity checks
* potentially more inlining in general, due to more in the compilation unit
* allows to keep using more forward declarations in the header, as with the
moc code being sourced into the cpp file there definitions can be ensured
and often are already for the needs of the normal class methods

In KF6 KMoreTools should become it's own library and thus the KNS3 prefix should get removed.
Considering that the classes are not in any namespace, having a namespaced include is not needed and only causes noise.

When the user is entering a search term, a delayed search will be
emmited after a few seconds. This means updating the search URL, which
in turn gets parsed and reflected back on the search input.
To avoid interrupting the user input flow and unexpectedly move the
cursor to the end, let's update the input search box only when it
doesn't have the focus.
It's still updated on other interactions such as changing the search
options or clicking a saved search on the places panel.

DolphinSearchBox::init() can generate a terminal warning depending on
the user's search history:
QFileInfo::absolutePath: Constructed with empty filename
The warning can seem to appear randomly if you don't use the search
feature often, because of its dependency on previous search activity.
Prevent this warning by adding a simple check if the current
m_searchPath is valid or not. This check has no effect on the value
returned by DolphinSearchBox::isIndexingEnabled() and is in line with
the fact that m_searchPath == QUrl() indicates that no search path has
been set.

Summary:
Currently, the search url parsing does not detect if the search is based on Content or Filename, and it just keeps the last selection which can be inconsistent with the actual search.
This patch add such detection, and since an advanced user can combine filename and content search (using the keyword `filename:`), now the parsing detects both items and handles the four possible cases:
| Content | Filename | Search text | Search type |
|---|---|------------------------|------------------|
| T | T | abc filename:"xyz" | Content |
| T | F | abc | Content |
| F | T | xyz | Filename |
| F | F | | do not set |

Summary:
With the new compact search filters (type/date/rating) it makes sense to show these options whenever available, and save some horizontal space on the main bar (specially for verbose languages).
These options will be hidden nevertheless if the search is non-indexed or Baloo is disabled.
For some nicer aesthetics D25029 should be also applied.

Summary:
Adds a method to reset the options in `facetsWidget` in two cases: when disabled and before parsing a new search URL.
Otherwise, controls for a parameter (ex. `rating`) which are not found in the new URL would stay on the old positions, instead of the default "any".
See D24422
Test Plan: Controls on `facetsWidget` go back to the default in such two cases.

Summary:
Fix the search box forgetting the location where the user was previously searching into.
To do a search on "All Files" instead of setting the `m_searchPath` to `$HOME`, it checks the button state, so the "From Here" location is not lost.
As an added benefit, selecting "Your Files" when in a non-indexed folder will use the baloo search instead of a fully non-indexed search from $HOME.
This issue is the last remaining one of the series started with D24422, with the purpose of fixing the searchbox parsing and update.
Test Plan:
- Toggle between "From Here/Your Files" and navigate between locations
- The search box remembers the location and keeps a coherent state

Summary:
The "Everywhere" button actually selects the home directory, so use
an appropriate label ("Your files") and add a "user-home" icon.
Pre-select the right button when entering search, depending on the
location where the "Find ..." action was triggered.
Add tooltips for both buttons, stating where to look for files. Most
importantly, this includes the full path for "From here".
Canonicalize the path correctly (always strip trailing slash), otherwise
QUrl::fileName() will be an empty string, resulting in "From Here (/)"
Do not hide the buttons in case the url is non-local, as it is confusing:
1. The state depends on the previous search. When the user hits "Find"
when browsing e.g an SMB share, the search was probably in the home dir.
2. The current search location was hidden
3. The user may want to do a local search, give the option to do so.

Summary:
Commit 43da84eefc7d introduced the risk of entering an endless loop of
`FocusIn`/`FocusOut` events sent to two DolphinSearchBox instances when
opening a second tab (see D11871).
This happens because we deactivate the first tab when we open a new one, but
since the `setActive(true)` is delayed with a QTimer, both the old tab
and the new one become active and receive their own `FocusIn` event
(which starts the loop of focus in/out events).
To prevent this issue, we schedule the searchbox activation only if the
searchbox is not already active.
Test Plan:
- Search something in dolphin
- Open a new tab after the search ends
- Check that dolphin does not eat the CPU

Summary:
FEATURE: 269332
Make Dolphin's Saved Search feature discoverable by adding a button inside the search field. The button only becomes enabled when there is a valid search term. When pushed, it saves the search to the Places panel, providing a visible-by-default way to do this to complement the existing implementation that is only visible in the context menu.
Also harmonized the label text so that it's consistent no matter how you create a saved search (button or context menu)
Test Plan:
Tested in KDE Neon. Works great:
