Ship it!


This is a bit hackish (the hardcoded paths, and the QSystemTrayIcon stuff)  
But if it works, i'm ok with it.

> This patch implements, as promised, Growl support in KNotify. Support is added in a separate class with static methods, called sometimes in NotifyByPopup. It currently uses Growl via QApplication::message(), because the GNTP protocol using which icon sending and callbacks are possible isn't stabilized in the Mac versions yet. This patch makes it possible to display the title and the message, in stripped form as with the DBus daemons after my last patch, in a Growl notification, with a (quite random) Qt information icon.

There is still a TODO in the source regarding the Windows path to Growl, I will fill that in soon, but it's trivial. With this patch applied, I expect no changes on any machine where Growl is not installed, since then the older mechanism of KPassivePopup is used. (DBus notification daemons are still preferred over Growl.)
