Review request for KDE Frameworks, Alex Merry and Kevin Ottens.

Description
-------

KXMLGUI: load .rc files from DATADIR/kxmlgui5/component_name/file.rc

The old files (DATADIR/component_name/file.rc) can still be loaded,
and a runtime warning is shown in such a case, telling people to install
into KXMLGUI_INSTALL_DIR (ECM patch posted to k-f-d)

This keeps DATADIR slightly cleaner, getting rid of many application subdirs
that would just contain a rc file. Some people seem to care about the cleanliness
of their DATADIR :-)

Testing
-------

Running kwrite unmodified -> works, with runtime warning
Porting kwrite to KXMLGUI_INSTALL_DIR -> works, runtime warning is gone

I also did the same with konsole, special case since it called setXMLFile("konsole/partui.rc"), had to be ported to setComponentName("konsole") + setXMLFile("partui.rc") while porting to KXMLGUI_INSTALL_DIR. This patch is still SC/BC, it's just a porting trap -- that affects none of the other existing kf5-based apps though.


Thanks,

David Faure
