New module: KPkPass

[Volker Krause]

Hi,

in order to make the travel/itinerary code started in kdepim-addons accessible 
for the corresponding mobile app too, I'm currently moving the shared parts to 
separate repos/modules. 

The first one ready to go is KPkPass (see kde:kpkpass.git), a library for 
reading Apple Wallet pass files, the de facto standard file format for mobile 
boarding passes. No rocket science in there, just parsing the file 
(essentially a zip file containing a JSON file, message catalogs and image 
assets) and making it consumable by Grantlee and QML for display.

I'd suggest to include this in the next PIM release (after 18.04 branching has 
been done), with the longer term goal to become a tier 2 framework once it has 
been battle-tested as part of one or two PIM releases. This would then become 
a dependency of kdepim-addons, for the pkpass messageviewer plugin.

I'm also working on a similar split for the itinerary data model and 
extraction code (currently in scratch/vkrause/kitinerary).

Regards,
Volker
