Kevin Kofler e365864c05 displaymanager: Detect the KDE Plasma (5 and 4) and GNOME desktop environments. 
Add them to the front of the list of desktop environments because users
are more likely to expect those as the default if they have them
installed.

Design notes

Calamares is currently split as follows:

  • libcalamares - the backend library,
  • only depends on QtCore, yaml-cpp, Python and Boost.Python,
  • provides a job queue and generic jobs,
  • comes with 3 job interfaces: C++, Python and process (the latter is very limited);
  • libcalamaresui - the frontend library,
  • same dependencies as libcalamares, plus QtWidgets and other Qt modules,
  • comes with a module loading system, for different kinds of plugins,
  • themeable so branding can be done easily (plugin-based, TBD),
  • presents a bunch of pages in a scripted order, enqueues jobs in the backend library;
  • calamares - the main executable,
  • a thin wrapper around libcalamaresui, starts up and plugs together all the parts.
