Guide users to using kio-admin instead of sudo

Felix Ernst requested to merge felixernst/dolphin:view_as_admin_wip into master

This commit adds a guided setup that leads users from a situation in which they try to "sudo dolphin" towards them successfully setting up and using kio-admin.

  1. When users enter "sudo dolphin", they are told to start Dolphin by typing "dolphin --sudo" or "dolphin --admin" instead.
  2. When Dolphin is started with "--sudo" or "--admin" it checks whether an "admin" protocol is installed. If not, a guided setup leads users towards installing it.
  3. After that, Dolphin starts with an installed "admin" protocol like kio-admin. Now a non-modal information dialog appears that explains how to activate and use kio-admin.
