REVISION SUMMARY
  As the summary says, when installing/removing multiple fonts to system the 
expected behaviour would be for fontinst to keep running after the first font 
has been installed or removed, instead it quits which causes a bunch of issues. 
fontinst uses KJob to authorize and internally KJob uses a QEventLoopLocker 
which causes the main event loop to quit when it's done.
  I'm not entirely sure why the event loop locker is enabled by default for 
KJob, but the patch I have attached works around this by completely disabling 
that functionality for fontinst. There's a timer that runs in the background 
which checks for any connected clients, so it will quit after a little while 
regardless.
  See #379524 and #379324 at bugs.kde.org.

TEST PLAN
  Make sure fonts are still installed and removed properly.
