KHTML binary incompatible change

Ahoy,

As of 2015-03-03 KHTML has a commit that renames a public function of
the DOMString class introduced in KF5.5 last year. This constitutes a
binary and source incompatible change that should either be revisited
to be made compatible or the libKF5KHtml.so version needs to be
increased to 6 starting with the KDE Frameworks 5.8 release.
Since it appears this was a straightforward rename without
functionality change, I would suggest to reinstate the old function,
mark it deprecated and have it do nothing more than forward to the
call into
the new function.
