At the moment, we were keeping the connection alive with every reachable
device. While this works optimally for most use-cases, on networks with
several devices with KDE Connect, the amount of connections grows
exponentially.

Every time we reload the plugin list, report the plugins that we support.
If the remote devices' capabilities change, update the plugin list.

Moves the implementation into the actual daemon. This opens the
possibility for different ways to expose these notifications depending on
where the libkdeconnect will be deployed.

Uses KPluginLoader+KPluginMetadata instead.
Describes plugins in json instead of desktop files. These desktop files are
then embedded into the .so file. All the plugins will be in a kdeconnect/
directory, and those will be the ones to look for.
Note it doesn't drop the KService dependency as KIOCore is a KDE Connect
dependency as well.

If the phone thinks that it's already paired with the computer when
receiving a pairing request, it will answer stuff back that will cause
the desktop to abort the pairing process.
Benefits:
- We had config files in different paths, now they will be centralized.
- Daemon, LanLinkProvider and NetworkPackage depend only on Qt now.
- KConfig is accessed with strings as keys, where a typo can go unnoticed.
- Daemon is now thinner, as it doesn't need to initialize config values.
- QCA::Initializer is in a single place now (was in Daemon and Plugin).
Only look for it in the writable path, as it won't ever be installed in a
common place.
Don't look for the path in the config file either.
Don't make it depend on the application name.

Use iconName instead of sending a fixed-size pixmap around, fix wording and use title
capitalization, more meaningful names in notifyrc, QStringLiteral and new style connect.

This meant to add a lot of dependencies to each plugin since we had
KDELibs4support as PUBLIC link meaning that anything linking against
kdeconnectcore was linking at the same time to mostly all frameworks.
Now each plugin has more or less its dependencies in the CMake some
still depend on KDELibs4Support.
For the mousepad plugin I needed to add a fixX11.h file that basically
undefines/defines again some stuff xlib has that conflcits with normal
C++ and Qt.
Before it was not conflicting because some lib within KDELibs4Support
was including this file, but now we have to do it ourselves.
I had to keep the old kDebug code in kdebugnamespace because other parts
of the code are using it. Will be removed as soon as all code using it
is ported as well.
Only lets the plugins that support something offered on the other end or
that offer something supported on the other end. If we don't have
information about the other device, we enable everything like we used to.
Also refactors a bit the plugin loader, to be able to provide information
step by step.
Currently it works, but we need support for capabilities at least on
Android to start taking good advantage of it.
