KDE Frameworks 5 and Plasma 2 co-installability

It should be possible to install a kde frameworks 5 runtime alonside a kdelibs 4 runtime so apps can use either one

Many paths have changed by default so there is no clash

HTML_INSTALL_DIR does clash as /usr/share/doc/HTML to allow khelpcentre to find docs from both kdelibs4 land and kf5 land

/usr/share/doc/HTML/en/kioslave/ will clash unless distros change docs install path (as debian does)

kactivitymanagerd clashes, seems upstream want it to stay that way https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/115602/

-* /usr/bin/kwin (due to be renamed?)
-* /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libkdecorations.so

-* kwin_update_default_rules can be removed
-* /usr/share/sounds/pop.wav

-Question: why did kwin.png and kcmkwm.png move from apps to actions?  They might need renamed apart from this.

-these overlap with KDE 4 equivalents from kde-workspace, no change expected
