Review request for Plasma and KDE Usability.


Changes
-------

* Migrate to SessionsModel, simplify code
* The "New Session" button is always consistently in the bottom left corner


Repository: plasma-workspace


Description
-------

This adds a user switcher dialog borrowing elements from the lock screen and 
log out dialog. I never understood why KRunner was used for that.

It is not yet hooked up to the system (would make KRunner's "switchUser" 
interface forward that to KSMServer so everybody using it (eg. kickoff) would 
continue to work without adjustments). To test it run qdbus org.kde.ksmserver 
/KSMServer openSwitchUserDialog

When it opens it defaults to "New Session", from an interaction POV the list 
view behaves like the one on the lock screen.

It locks the screen when switching users only when the user has enabled the 
lock screen (might need a separate option for that?) That unconditional locking 
on session switching has turned out to be a major annoyance.

Testing
-------

Looks pretty, switching to a new or existing session works.

Btw, weren't we able to click outside the dialog to dismiss it in 4.x? Seems 
broken for the logout dialog as well.
