Correction: The warning messages I was getting prior to 5.27.5 is actually
`Dropping a screencast cursor update because the compositor is slow`, so that
part isn't as much "more warning messages than before" as it is "new warning
messages". Looking through old logs I did still see the screencast frame drop
message, but it was only occasionally occurring back then.

Also, out of the 3 commits introduced in the problematic MR I found that the
issue is specifically caused by commit 226d8c0a3b464f8870c45bfe5079f042a3cd5d67
(screencast: Ensure we respect the negotiated framerate), reverting it on top
of 5.27.5 drops KWin's CPU usage back to what it was before.
