#44999: limit Qt4's menu item placement guessing and the damages it can cause

-------------------------+--------------------------------
 Users of Qt and esp. KDE applications will have noticed certain
 irregularities in the Application menu About and Preferences items of
 these applications, which often do not invoke the expected action,
 sometimes even a completely unrelated one (as with KDevelop).

 A full discussion of the issue is in this upstream bugreport:
 https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-41351

 Attached is a patch which removes the guesses Qt makes about which of an
 applications menu items should be moved to the Application menu. This may
 make applications (that rely on that guesswork) less "Mac like", but
 otherwise improves their functioning ("function over form").
 It also paves the way to easier changes to individual applications to get
 the right menu items installed under About and Preferences (because those
 menu items are no longer occupied automatically, something that cannot be
 undone nor prevented easily).
