Review request for KDE PIM.


Summary
-------

As reported here http://lists.kde.org/?t=123551507200002&r=1&w=2 the failure to start Akonadi server leaves applications using the compatibility kresource plugins in a broken state.

This is an attempt to fix this, by trying the Akonadi start in the context of the plugin's "open" and reporting failure.
The additional state tracking seems to be necessary as well, at least StdAddressBook or its subclass call load methods even on resource which failed at open.

Testing
-------

Tested with the usual KDEPIM apps, both with Akonadi server capable of starting and failing to start.

When the server cannot start I get a crash in KMail when I close (and discard) the composer I used to check address completion with.
The completion itself "works" (without addressbook entries it doesn't do anything, but it does not result in any error).


Thanks,

Kevin
