Hey

It'd be awesome if I could get some eyes at the new
https://invent.kde.org/system/plasma-disks which implements smart
monitoring as requested in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=254313
I've opted to not put it in kinfocenter directly because it is a bit
much with its own kded module and kauth helper, plus I guess there's
an opportunity to add further monitoring tech for RAIDs or something.
It still targets plasma releases though.

This runtime depends on smartctl (from smartmontools) to read the
smart status via a kauth helper. Device states are managed inside a
kded that maps the devices into dbus from which the kinfocenter KCM
then loads the data for visualization.
