this ports most of libplasma away from sycoca, using instead
a combination of KPluginLoader and KPackage::PackageLoader instead
(so eventually using their own little caches instead of the
global sycoca cache)
a kservicetypetrader call is left in the loading of
containmentactions since is the only way to make an older
workspace still work, but is only a fallback, so containmentactions
in plasma-workspace can be ported eventually as well

KPluginLoader has all the needed machinery to identify a plugin by its
pluginId. No need to use the query parser here, replace it with a
lambda.
Look for C++ dataengines first. These are much more common, especially
in essential cases. By looking up the plugins through KPluginLoader
first, we can save querying ksycoca.

CHANGELOG:Use KPluginLoader instead of ksycoca for loading C++ dataengines
fallback to empty Applet/containment if an inexisting library
was specified in the metadata file.
this fixes old applets with incorrect metadata

make possible for an applet to be implemented in c++ but still
have the qml package with the usual api, this was supposed to
be supported from the beginning.
if a c++ applet has been loaded, make available the property
plasmoid.nativeInterface to the qml part, exposing the subclasses
Applet instance with all eventual extra propertiels/slots.
if no c++ plugin is present, appletInterface will be dummy/not available
this (besides limiting a bit the qml import rabbit procreation)
makes available some things not available to normal private imports:
* access to applet config() to save more complex things compared to what kconfigxt allows
or save/load stuff from the c++ part
* access to containment()/corona(), may be useful for containment implementations
* easier port for old very big applets such as comics/weather

Plasma::Package internally uses KPackage, being a pure wrapper.
old client code and old packagestructures still work using the wrapper.
old workspace code that is not directly using kpackage continues to work correctly

consider a loaded package valid even if !isvalid() but does have some file
that indicates it has a valid packagestructure.
for how packages are loaded now, a package is never valid at first if has a required file:
because the path gets set only after the package is loaded
this fixes wallpaper loading
This changes the path where to find dataengines to the
subdirectory-per-servicetype setup.
Note: You'll need to update and reinstall kde-workspace/plasma, to
install the dataengines into the new path.

* Multi-line debug statements were essentially broken
* There's still a bunch of #include "QDebug" in there, which seems wrong
* It's not necessary to comment most occurrences in src/plasma, since
they're wrapped wiht #ifdef NDEBUG already.

All cpp code moves into the src/ subdirectory, as the Frameworks policy
suggests.
Directory structure should now be in line with other, future frameworks.
