DataEngines: Add forward compatibility as a porting aid

Ismael Asensio requested to merge work/iasensio/kf5-dataengine-porting-aid into kf5

In Plasma6 DataEngines are deprecated and moved to a specific compatibility library, under the org.kde.plasma.plasma5support import namespace.

For KF5 we can register the DataSource and DataModel types also on this namespace, so the import works in both versions to help dataengine consumers (specially 3rd party plasmoid makers) with the transition.
