SUMMARY
Commit
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/commit/b214251f81cbacacf3ef483081a7cef15343fa7f
forces software cursors on Intel GPU's. But they have visual artifacts.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Activate software cursors with `KWIN_FORCE_SW_CURSOR=1`
2. Check how cursor is rendered.
3. Disable software cursors with `KWIN_FORCE_SW_CURSOR=0`
4. Compare rendering.
OBSERVED RESULT
HW cursors have smooth shadow outside.
SW cursors have artifacts instead of shadow.
EXPECTED RESULT
SW should look similar to HW ones.
