D7699: Add support for custom search paths for application-specific syntax and theme definitions

[Michael Hansen]

  @dhaumann yes, your guess is correct.  I was experimenting with replacing a difficult-to-maintain qscintilla fork with some custom syntax lexers with QTextEdit + KSyntaxHighlighting + easier-to-maintain custom Kate-style syntax definitions, in a non-KDE application.  One of the custom syntax rules is arguably more generally useful outside of the application (although it may be misleading since it shares an extension with a more common use), but the others I feel would just pollute the global set since they're unlikely to ever be edited outside the app.
