Message:

Fix install dirs in kde packages for lxqt

• add -DKDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS=ON, which allows installing qtplugins in the /opt/qt5 hierarchy instead of /usr/mkspecs
• add -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBEXECDIR=libexec, which allows installing private apps in /usr/libexec instead of /usr/lib/libexec
• remove -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib, which is useless since extra-cmake-modules use GNUInstallDir

Note that those modifications have been done for all the kde packages
used in LXQt, althoough the modification for libexec is only needed for
three of them. But it does not hurt for the others, and who knows how
things may evolve...
