xdg drag and drop portal support

Harald Sitter requested to merge work/dndportalizer into master

  • adds a new function exportUrlsToPortal that gets called by the sender to extend qmimedata with transfer context (and send the relevant files off to the portal)

  • extends urlsFromMimeData to unpack the transfer context and redirect the urls to the ones received from the portal

main disadvantage: this would bring in qdbus as optional dependency of kcoreaddons along with runtime depends on portals and kio-fuse (albeit not required)

main advantage: receivers would hopefully already call urlsFromMimeData saving us from having to change every single drag receiving application (we still have to change every drag sending application though :(()
