Port desktop file shortcut handling to KService

Nicolas Fella requested to merge work/kservice into master

Using KService instead of KDesktopFile brings multiple benefits

It correctly merges contents of /usr/share/applications and .local/share/applications

It will make it easier to integrate with ApplicationLauncherJob and ApplicationTrader

We can use the KSycoca database and react to changes in it

To fully make use of this potential more patches are needed, this is just the base port that shouldn't change the behavior
