Review request for KDE Frameworks and David Faure.


Changes
-------

Add serviceByDesktopPath to the test app


Repository: kservice


Description
-------

Make sure non-prefixed desktop files win when looking up by name

The existing code resolved all the overrides (based on storage id), then
if there were multiple desktop files with the same id (say
"konsole.desktop" and "kde4/konsole.desktop"), it would arbitrarily (due
to the use of QHash) pick one of them to return from
KService::serviceByDesktopName(), regardless of where in XDG_DATA_DIRS
it was found.

So you might get serviceByDesktopName("konsole") giving you
"kde4/konsole.desktop" and serviceByDesktopName("amarok") giving you
"amarok.desktop" (even if "kde4/amarok.desktop" also exists).

This change makes desktop files without a prefix (like
"konsole.desktop") override ones with a prefix (like
"kde4/konsole.desktop").  If you also have "kde5/konsole.desktop", the
ordering between that and "kde4/konsole.desktop" is still arbitrary, and
the order of XDG_DATA_DIRS is ignored.

Remove the prefix hacks from KService::serviceByDesktopName()

These didn't work; the desktop file "kde4/konsole.desktop" will only be
listed under the desktop name "konsole", not under the name
"kde4-konsole".

Add a test app for the KService::serviceBy* methods
