qtatspi and kwrite

[Jude DaShiell]

I ran kwrite -style fusion and got a kwrite window but you're right I'm 
pretty sure qt4 is  not going to work since any keyboard action after 
that was not spoken with orca on.  Until slint moves on up to qt5, kde 
and qt5 apps will remain inaccessible.  I'm helping with testing of 
slint.
