Desktop effects plug

Registered by Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff

# Expected functionality:
 - switch between profiles (no effects, standard experience, rich effects) (ORLY?)
 - enable/disable some effects one by one (shell blur, wobbly windows, etc)

Whiteboard

Mockup looks great!
Some amendments:
 * Scale is always on because it's a dock item, don't provide a switch for it
 * When desktop style is set to Cube, Cylinder or Sphere, vertical size is set to 1 and is insensitive
 * Accessibility tab should probably go to accessibility plug
There's also transparency on dragging which is a good idea but was reverted in ubuntu because people complained it lags on slow machines
I'm not sure what to do about it; shall we introduce performance profiles like gnome did or what?
