SUMMARY
Users are notified under the "News" section in the opening screen of Krita about new updates to Krita. Despite appearing as a link, it is impossible to interact with it - clicking it does not do anything.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Krita 5.0.2
2. Look under "News" section for update download link (in this situation, update to 5.1.0)
3. Attempt to click link to update

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens (e.g. devs just trolled the entire userbase LOL)

EXPECTED RESULT
Krita should begin the update process, navigate to update page, or do something

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Windows 10 Home 64-Bit (10.0 Build 19044)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
pretty funny tbh, but still a bug

Yes, that's something someone else on irc also reported yesterday evening. I'm not sure what's up, the code "looks" correct, but I'll confirm the issue. Can't fix it for 5.1.0, though :-)

Fix update link on Welcome Page widget

Before this commit, the update link on the Welcome Page widget
would look clickable but it wasn't possible to click it.
That was because the widget wasn't enabled.
This commit enables it and makes the link clickable.
