Are we doing a plasma beta testing day? was supposed to be last

Please review

Notificatons:
    Noticed that X-GNOME-UsesNotifications key isn't working in the
KCM anymore, will fix later, unless @nicofee knows a reason for doing
a string compare (he did the port)
        seems a porting bug to KApplicationTrader. The field is a
proper bool now
        MS Teams sets it to an Array (true;), so it will still not
work with it, though :D
    WIP: Play sound when plugging in/out USB device, please give it
some real-world testing to filter out false positives:

KScreen:
    Refactored output QML
        using a clever Gradient hack, please review
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kscreen/-/merge_requests/134
Frameworks:
    KIconEngine now returns the actual icon you get rather than the
one that was requested
        kde-non-existing will fall back to kde and QIcon::name() will
now return kde
        This allows e.g. Telegram to check if panel icon stuff is
supported by the current theme
    Got a request to re-visit
https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/issues/25073 – what do you
think? code lgtm. Not too happy with the static hash but I also
wouldnt like an unsolicited setProperty into a const mimedata..
