Ark KPart: restore mismatch of componentname and plugin id

By history Ark stores the xmlgui ui.rc file for the part in the same subdir as the program, ark/. And set the comppnent name as needed to "ark" via the KAboutData instance for the KPart. At the same time the plugin id has been "arkpart", as derived from the library name due to the absence of an explicit X-KDE-PluginInfo-Name entry in the desktop file.

With the change to the KPluginMetaData API of KParts/KPluginLoader and the new entries added to the desltop file based on the KAboutData values, that mismatch was resolved by accident. With "ark" now also the plugin id, the look up the kpart by the program though now fails, due to the condition metaData.pluginId() == QLatin1String("arkpart")
