Screenshot of the bug

Descriptions defined in metadata.desktop of SDDM themes can be very long. For example the Elarun theme has:

Description=Elarun KDM theme ported to SDDM. \nThe original theme is based on work of Roman Shtylman & Nuno Pinheiro

Such a long text breaks the GridLayout in src/qml/main.qml (see attached screenshot)

Redesign the theme preview window

Summary:
This patch:
- makes the root element accommodate its content's dimensions so that information doesn't get cut off when using scaling or big fonts
- matches the root element's color to that of the surrounding space
- replaces the border around the image preview with a drop shadow
- ports the GridLayout to ColumnLayout to make sure content doesn't get lost horizontally when using scaling or big fonts
- ports Text elements to QQC2 Labels
- adds the theme name as a Kirigami heading
- constrains the labels within the layout's width, wrapping and eliding them if necessary
- removes the hardcoding of font sizes
- makes the email and website info clickable
FIXED-IN: 5.16
