D15869: Fallback to in-process prompt if logout prompt fails

  It was.The situation is now much much much better.
  But kscreenlocker-greet is a different process, and we've definitely seen that fallback prompt shown.
  
  Also I don't like the way it was done. It was done as a conservative exact 1:1 mapping of the original code with a FD in the middle rather than designing something.
  
  All that was needed was:
  
  - spawn logout prompt (probably DBus activation to avoid dupes) as fire-and-forget
  - logout prompt using the existing ksmserver API to perform logout/shutdown over DBus with the "don't confirm" argument set
  
  In my quest to strip ksmserver to being just an X session manager, I want to do the refactor above so that it's then highly movable.
  
  I think I can do everything in a backwards compatible way for each release, I'm not sure about doing every possible upgrade combo.
