Review request for KDE Frameworks and John Layt.


Description
-------

Most of the printing features are now part of Qt 5.2 and basically only 4 features are left:
 - Page Label
 - Page Border
 - Mirror Pages
 - (Advanced) Job Options
 - Server-side paging

I've dropped Job Options as it was quite terrible way to edit/pass CUPS options directly. Server-side paging is actually just a convenient feature as with QPrintDialog, apps that can't do paging themselves need 2 lines of code to set the printing dialog up, thanks to KDEPrintDialog only one line is needed. The rest I've put under Page Options tab in the print dialog. To be honest I don't think they are that useful (or used, even) but we have the code and CUPS support already. If these options were to be dropped however, I'd drop the whole KDE Print support then as it would become just a convenient wrapper around QPrintDialog.
