It doesn't open because of QML errors. It needs someone to port it away from PlasmaExtras.ScrollArea

Mostly fix Application Dashboard

Now it opens and you can launch things, which is at least a step up
from being totally broken.

Known issues:
- Symbolic button icons have the wrong color (dark, should be light)
- ItemMultiGrid, which backs the All Applications view, does not scroll
