Applet::createConfigurationInterface

[Aaron J. Seigo]

hi...

attached is a draft patch that implements 
Applet::createConfigurationInterface. the idea is that applets will add their 
widgets to the dialog, and then Applet can do whatever it pleases with it. 
this will prevent common bugs from occuring (like dialogs not showing up on 
the right desktop) and even let us put the configuration on the canvas with a 
proxy widget if we so desired.

showConfigurationInterface is not removed or changed, so existing applets 
won't break, but it would no longer be the preferred mechanism.

what i don't like about the patch thus far:

* it uses KConfigDialog and pretty much commits us to using that long term

* it activates the Apply button no matter what. i couldn't find a nice way to 
do this in the case of not having a KConfigSkeleton to drive it =/

thoughts?
