Allow KCM kpackages to use metadata of C++ plugin

Alexander Lohnau requested to merge work/kpackage_set_metadata into master

This way kpackages do not need to install the metadata files if they are already shipped as embedded json metadata. This way we also don't need to parse the metadata twice & keep it in memory.

By preferring the about data for the component name we enusre that we do not break compat with any KCMs that want to utilize the new contructor. This is for example the case in the icons kcms.

Task: https://phabricator.kde.org/T14983

Depends on kpackage!29 (merged)
