Review request for KDE Frameworks and Plasma.


Changes
-------

The latest version adds a string representing the available colors of the qpalette as \
cache keys, it makes possible for applications to dynamically change their \
palettelike the dark scheme for gwenview


Repository: kiconthemes


Description
-------

Breeze uses stylesheet information to color its icons with some "named" colors that \
change depending from the current system color scheme, this is already used since \
some time in the icons used by the Plasma shell. But QWidget applications have the \
same problem, when the user changes the color scheme from breeze to breeze dark (or \
any color scheme), most of the icons will be black on black. This patch clones (a bit \
simplified and taking only the most "important" colors) the logic used by Plasma::Svg \
to color icons with the stylesheet.

even tough it's doing more things at icon generation, an application that uses a lot \
of icons like Dolphin doesn't seem to have noticeable startup time difference, even \
when the image cache is not present yet, so i hope is not an unacceptable performance \
tradeoff (successive loads are unchanged as are from the image cache).

still some questions and things that can be optimized, like

* an optional key in the theme metadata file to explicitly enable this, to not have \
it running in themes that don't care?

* can i use karchive in this framework?, so it would work with svgz icons as well

* right now to refresh icons at runtime it depends from a patch in the colors kcm to \
emit iconchanges as well, alternatively kiconloader could watch for kcolorscheme \
changes as well, but i don't think is strictly necessary
