WIP Install guide

Prerequisites

On Arch, you'll need cmake, extra-cmake-modules, qt6-virtualkeyboard, qt6-multimedia, qt6-5compat, plasma5support, kvantum, optionally plymouth

Notes:

1. Wayland support seems to be better than before probably, but it's not fully supported yet, it still has some jank

Plasma stuff

1. Move desktoptheme, look-and-feel, plasmoids, shells into ~/.local/share/plasma
2. Move smod to ~/.local/share
3. Move sddm-theme-mod to /usr/share/sddm/themes
4. Import color scheme through system settings
5. Apply the appropriate settings in system settings
6. Restart plasma (plasmashell --replace & disown in terminal)

KWin stuff

1. Compile the decoration theme and C++ KWin effects using the install scripts provided, I don't think just placing the precompiled ones will work as KWin won't register them
2. Move effects, tabbox, outline, scripts to ~/.local/share/kwin
3. Apply the appropriate settings in system settings
4. Restart kwin (kwin_x11 --replace & disown in terminal)

Misc stuff

1. Run the install script for defaulttooltip
2. Move the Kvantum folder (the one inside the kvantum folder) to ~/.config
3. Unpack the sound archive and move the folders to ~/.local/share/sounds
4. Unpack the icon and cursor archives and move the folders to ~/.local/share/icons
5. Configure stuff in system settings and possibly elsewhere if needed (setting up cursors and SDDM stuff can be tricky sometimes)
6. You'll need to install at least Segoe UI, Segoe UI Bold, and Segoe UI Italic as system-wide fonts
