Review request for Plasma.


Summary
-------

first implementation of an idea discussed @tokamak: add api to assign the execution of something to an applet. the rationale is to launch an app that is the "full version" of that applet, where the applet serves as little preview.
it is possible to assign a kservice (usually used with kservice::servicefromdesktopfile("app name")) and an optional argument.
if the service is missing and the argument url is present the url will be opened based on its mimetype.
an applethandle icon and a context menu entry will be added to launch that external tool
now there are roe rough edges:
-api: pass kservice and url or just strings to make bindings easier?
-urls: right now there is only one parameter: maybe having support for a list?
-naming: now all the names are talking about an "external tool", the applet handle uses the "maximize" icon, calling it maximize everywhere? i would leave external tool in the api and call maximize the action and the action text, that is what is presented to the user..
