Moving serializer plugins to respective akonadi-* repos?

[Daniel Vrátil]

Hi,

the move is done now.

@translators: I moved some localizations around - what previously was in 
akonadi_serializer_plugins.pot in kdepim-runtime.git is now split into

 * akonadicontact5-serializer.pot (in akonadi-contacts.git)
 * libakonadi-calendar5-serializer.pot (in akonadi-calendar.git)
 * ilbakonadi-kmime5-serializer.pot (in akonadi-mime.git)
 * libkalarmcal5-serializer.pot (in kalarmcal.git)

Could you please move the translations (or tell me what I should and I'll take 
care of it, but I don't want to mess it up :-))

Thanks a lot!
Dan
