Review request for Plasma.


Changes
-------

Don't do the stupid 5 second wait for ktimezoned if we're in timedated mode

Add comments in bool KclockModule::timedatedSave()


Repository: plasma-desktop


Description
-------

The current time setting helper is incredibly broken.

It manually tries to run a range of NTP utilities, all of which are
deprecated.

We can just call timedated directly and cut out the middleman as it has
uses polkit anyway.

This is currently an optional dependency, and the original helper still
exists. It makes the code messy, but we have users to support for now.

Finding timedated is an cmake option rather than querying for systemd
libs to make it easier for those deploying shims, such as BSD.


(code is in two commits, first abstracting the saving from the dtime class; then adding in the second save mechanism)
