When there is a `kdeinit4` process, but `kfmclient` is not installed

This happened on a non-KDE system, where `kdeinit4` was
installed/started for an unknown reason, but konqueror/kfmclient is not
available.
This patch also makes the `system()` call only when necessary (via a
function), and will prefer `xdg-open` unconditionally also for potential KDE
systems.
After all, `xdg-open` is better aware of the current desktop environment
and is designed for use cases like this.
The old code was primarily meant to handle edge cases when `gnome-open` was
used.
I have left it as a fallback in case `xdg-open` might not be available.
The patch is available in a branch at:
https://github.com/blueyed/vim/compare/fix-netrw-with-kdeinit (which includes a
commit to fix trailing whitespace).
I am attaching the patch from the main commit
(https://github.com/blueyed/vim/commit/b5e13acebc11c13290d3f3dd9940b1ab181f47a3).
Thanks! I'll look into it.
Regards,
Chip Campbell
