Define display switcher shortcut via desktop file instead of at runtime

Vlad Zahorodnii requested to merge work/zzag/cherry-pick-osd-shortcut-fix into Plasma/6.0

As per https://phabricator.kde.org/T12063 we want to move more towards defining shorcuts via desktop files instead of at runtime, which has several problems

Instead of creating a KActionCollection and QAction, assigning a global shortcut, and connecting to the QAction being triggered define a DBus call to be executed when triggering the shortcut

This fixes several problems:

  • The current shortcut is registered under the kded5 component, which not only looks weird in the systemsettigs UI, it also breaks in Plasma 6 where kded6 is used

  • On Wayland the kded module isn't used, so nothing handles the shortcut there currently
