[FFe] Release UITK 1.2

[Zoltan Balogh]

Dear release team,

I would like to request a feature freeze exception for the Ubuntu UI Toolkit package and release it to 15.04. While it is a bugfix only release, it is still a huge change and it is the next layer above Qt and below the Ubuntu Touch applications.

The test before the release I will conduct according to the UITK Test Plan https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Process/Merges/TestPlan/ui-toolkit what consists of running all tests for the available core applications.

The test results will be put in the regular place like all other test results: http://people.canonical.com/~bzoltan/

The changes of these release are listed here:

    Fixes: LP: #1199502, LP: #1415532
  [ Sebastien Bacher ]

    domain. Fixes: LP: #1421661.
  [ Tiago Salem Herrmann ]
  * Drop cache once properties are successfully restored.

    selected parameters in the beginning.
  [ Tim Peeters ]
  * Add MainView 1.2 which removes the deprecated toolbar support.
  * Enable PageStack header animations for MainView 1.2.
  * Fix the size and anchors of a Page that is loaded inside a Loader.
    This is useful when a Page is Loaded by a Tab. Fixes: LP: #1424635
  * Fix UITK gallery content page width.
    Fixes: LP: #1424635, LP: #1425470
  [ Zsombor Egri ]
  * Alarm services regression fix. Fixes: LP: #1401883
  * Implement ListItem dragging support in ListView.
    Fixes: LP: #119535
  * Introducing select/multiselect mode in ListItem.
  * Moving the tst_focus.qml under exceptions till we fix DatePicker
    binding loops.
  * RTL (Right To Left) support in ListItem.
  * RTM branch diff merge. Fixes: LP: #1358610.
  * Second stage of simplification - divider group property is an item,
    simplifying the anchoring of the contentItem. PropertyChange does
    not backup the property binding, uses QQmlPropertyPrivate::write()
    with parameter to keep bindings. ListItemAnimator uses behavior to
    animate snapping. Styling got "styledItem" context property to obey
    general styling rules. clicked() and pressAndHold() emission fix
    when content is swiped.
  * Transferring the ListItem attached properties to ListItemStyle API.
    Most of the style API became redundant, and removed. Few API from
    ListItem were also removed as not needed. ListItemAnimator,
    UCListItemAttached and UCActionPanel classes removed.
    Panel swiping overshoot made elastic. Snapping animation transformed
    into SmoothedAnimation, uses velocity of 60GU/second. Turning
    warnings to be reported in the error property.
    SHOW_SERVICEPROPERTIES_WARNINGS environment variable set will
    display them in the console. Fixes: LP: #1423203.
  * Updating documentation and imports for 1.2 & Vivid (Qt 5.4).

Ack. Approved. It's not bug fix only (note for example the appearance of the new haptics object, but it seems reasonable to include.
