           Summary: Provide vcs plugins action to checkout/clone

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Common use-case for vcs is checkout/clone.
For now Dolphin's KVersionControlPlugin interface doesn't support this because
KVersionControlPlugin::actions() applied only for versioned directories.

This wishlist is for filling a request for this feature and also for a possible
design discussion.

We can extend KVersionControlPlugin interface with one more pure virtual
function. That function will return action list for a unversioned directory
with clone action (and maybe more like for example plugin settings).

Function could be 'KVersionControlPlugin::unversionedActions()' and
'KVersionControlPlugin::versionedActions()' (previously known as 'actions()').

This requires simultaneous update of 'dolphin' and 'dolphin-plugins' projects.
