Remove the Browser Identification KCM

Nicolas Fella requested to merge work/nouakcm into master

It's purpose is to control the user agent used by kio-http.

Very few things use kio-http these days, not even Konqueror with the webengine part.

For the remaining use cases (kioclient, webdav kio worker, etc.) this kind of configurability is overkill.

Moreover being part of systemsettings this gives a false impression of globality. A user might change something in there and wonder why it does not apply to Firefox or Falkon.

Given the questionable usefulness and the potential for confusion I propose to remove it entirely.
