In the timezone widget, locations in the far north -- Inuvik,
Thule, Longyearbyen -- were displayed too far south, because the
map location calculation assumes a linear gradient, which places
90 degrees north at about 70 degrees. Change calculation to
pretend the world is flat south of 62 degrees north, and then
'bend' the remaining 28 degrees of latitude to the top of the
image. This puts most places in the right spot, although Yellowknife
is now on the south shore of Great Slave.
Fort Nelson should be north of Dawson Creek, too -- the math still
needs a little work.
While here, put Antarctica in the south, otherwise Rothera keeps
showing up in Greenland.
- Introduce a map 'passwordRequirements' in users.conf,
which is a list of named requirements. There are only
two settings right now, min and max length, but
additional checks can easily be added in UsersPage.cpp
by defining additional lambda's to check the given
password string.
- Add PasswordCheck instances as needed, with functions
to check acceptability and to produce messages on rejection.
- Documentation in the users.conf file itself.
- In passing, refactor setting of pixmaps on labels.
FIXES#790
Resolves issue where 'linuxswap' is translated to 'Linux-Swap',
for instance. FileSystem::name() provides a translated name,
not an untranslated one.
This should move to KPMCore.

There is no need to force folks haing a random group
bc that is a Distro think. SDDM/GDM works just fine without
having a group for the user to autologin.
Just setup a group in users.conf .. is why we have a configuration
option for that.
- deleteLater() doesn't like nullptr (produces a warning, but is harmless)
- reparenting across threads doesn't work, comment on that but leave
it in, since this may be relevant for memory management.
- both NetInstall (group data) and Locale (GeoIP) use network
data returned as a source of YAML data. Try to explain
parsing errors for both.
FIXES#786
When NetInstall receives YAML data, handle parser errors more gracefully:
show line and column, but because it's network data (not in a local file),
do some work to print out the actual data received.
FIXES#786
If the summary widget is large, it gets a scrollbar. This looks really
weird, so prefer to grow the installer window instead. Discussed with
@sitter and settled on this solution.
ViewSteps can signal the ViewManager that they need more space (in pixels),
which may or may not be honored.
