Patch for core/kget.cpp to consider ExpertMode

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

Config option "Disable confirmation dialogs (less verbosity)" in KGet (2.4.4) is just ignored.

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
If I set this config option I want KGet to start downloading without showing any confirmation dialogs (if possible)

I wasn't able to find any reference in the sourcecode for this option. It looks like it was just forgotten, or is there any intention to not implement it?
Well, a did a few changes to the sourcecode (see attachment) so KGet does exactly what I expect it to do:
If ExpertMode is set and if there is a download group that fits, start downloading without confirmation dialog (of course only if filename is known and there is nothing to overwrite).

There is the option "Use groups only as suggestion" in the groups-tab of the config dialog...

The expert mode setting is currently only used twice in KGet code, we might wanna remove it or merge it with the group as suggestion one...

Anyway, this is no bug, but expected behaviour...
