Add a KCModule (KCron) into System Settings

Hi,

Thanks everybody, I've finally found the problem (ouch, 4 hours
lost...) and kcm_cron is now displayed in systemsettings. You were
right, this was because there was something wrong with my system (bad
paths and symbolic links).

So I think the rewritten of KCron should finish soon, as the porting
to KCModule was one of the last step.

Cheers !

Nicolas
