Private Qml pugin for Baloo

[Pinak Ahuja]

The code is already in Baloo, under the namespace
org.kde.baloo.experimental. It is being used only by KInfoCenter right now.
The idea is that it'll not be used in anything critical until the API is
stabilized. I don't see the need for API changes in the foreseeable future.

So maybe we can move it under the main namespace in some time and after
that start using it in stuff like applets, KRunner etc?
