Changes:
- kde-gtk-config was moved from extragear/base to kde/workspace.
- muon was moved from extragear/sysadmin to kde/workspace.

That is, only projects.kde.org structure change.

The reasoning is that this way they will be released together with Plasma
Workspace. As they've been used they don't really make sense outside Plasma
(especially the first) and we want to make sure that distros know these
components are designed to work together with Plasma.

I didn't notify kde-core-devel because it didn't occur to me that the
community would have an opinion regarding whether it's me who releases the
packages or Jonathan (who has been doing the Plasma packages).

Cheers!
Aleix
