REVISION SUMMARY
  This is an alternative to D22728 <https://phabricator.kde.org/D22728>. It makes the System Information KCM appear in
  System Settings' System Administration section.
  
  Advantages over D22728 <https://phabricator.kde.org/D22728>:
  
  - The information is more discoverable
  - It automatically disappears if KInfoCenter is not installed or removed
  - It requires no changes to SystemSettings' fragile codebase
  
  Disadvantages:
  
  - Since it doesn't open KInfoCenter or have a link to it, all the other information in KInfoCenter is not exposed
  - If we do later want to adjust this KCM to have a button to open KInfoCenter when pushed, we'll hit https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=410169 since the KCM will be already open in System Settings
