Review request for kdelibs.


Summary
-------

This patch fixes a recent regression that broke the traditional MMB tab moving (used, e.g., in Konqueror). It also adds a unit test, un-deprecates KTabBar's moveTab(int,int) signal and clarifies the API docs:

1. The signal KTabBar::moveTab(int,int) is not equivalent to QTabBar::tabMoved(int,int).
2. Qt's tab moving mechanism (which is there since Qt 4.5) is not totally equivalent to KDE's tradition MMB tab moving (e.g., it breaks drag&drop to other applications) -> KTabBar::setTabReorderingEnabled(true) can in general not be replaced safely by QTabBar::setMovable(true).


This addresses bug 214646.

Testing
-------

MMB tab moving works again in Konqueror, new unit test (which failed before the change in ktabwidget.cpp) passes.


Thanks,

Frank
