    Remove the attica-kde aka "The Social Desktop" KCM

    This KCM was only used for providing credentials for loging into
    opendesktop.org (or other mythical providers which do not exist). The
    KCM says it is  used for this -

    * Community Applet (not shipped with Plasma5)
    * Social News Applet (not shipped with Plasma5)
    * Get Hot new Stuff (knewstuff has a TODO - Implement support for
      authorization)

    It does not make sense to ship with a KCM which is
    a.) Useless
    b.) Targets a proprietary service
    c.) Crashes on exit
