Hm, I don't really understand why these files are not installed.
CMakeLists.txt has this:

install(FILES
    servicetypes/plasma-animator.desktop
    servicetypes/plasma-applet.desktop
    servicetypes/plasma-dataengine.desktop
    servicetypes/plasma-runner.desktop
    servicetypes/plasma-scriptengine.desktop
    DESTINATION ${SERVICETYPES_INSTALL_DIR})
