sticky notes plugin

[giomatfois62]

This is the first version of a sticky notes plugin for the panel.
Start creating notes by adding the plugin to the panel, clicking its button and selecting the "New Note" action.

• The background and foreground color and the default font can be configured from the plugin configuration dialog. When changing the foreground color, the icons in the note frames are updated to match it for better visibility.

• Each note allows to set its own custom font through a button in the top left of the note frame.

• Each note has a title label showing date and time of creation.

• It's possible to show/hide all notes and show/hide the window frame on the buttons on the notes.

An issue i could not resolve is that each note shows an entry on the taskbar, setting Qt::Tool in the window flags did not help (I'm pretty sure i tried this thing before and it used to work fine though).

I'll test it as soon as I find the time. I'll also take a look at the code but the real reviewer might be @palinek --- he sees things that I miss.

So, please be patient; it might take a while.

Hello!
Unlike lxqt-panel itself, this plugin throws some compiler warnings.

stickynote.cpp:199:44: warning: unused parameter ‘event’
stickynote.cpp:215:15: warning: variable ‘geometry’ set but not used
notesconfiguration.cpp:50:53: warning: unused parameter ‘checked’

I personally don't think it's a big deal but it would be really nice if you fixed these.
Thanks for committing this! Have a nice day :)

Unlike lxqt-panel itself, this plugin throws some compiler warnings.

Compiled lxqt-panel today. Here, not only panel but all LXQt components throw compiler warnings. Nowadays, compilers have become too sensitive ;)

But the warnings about deprecated Qt methods need to be silenced, IMO.

This is abandoned?
