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.

Use QNetworkAccessManager for storing the files we receive instead of
directly KIO, then provide the KIO-based QNetworkAccessManager from the
daemon. This way we'll still get the KIO network-transparency, but the
library only depenends on QtNetwork, which will be easier to get in some
platforms.
After this change, we only depend on KConfig, KI18n and KCoreAddons, which
are tier1 and really easy to work with on any platform.

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.

Ported using KDELibs4Support, for a smaller delta, so we can keep
developing on master until we decide not to.
At the moment, it builds and installs but tests don't pass because
of a QCA2 initialization problem I didn't manage to debug yet.
