Bug Description

Despite I have installed kde-config-systemd, the KDE system settings say that there is a missing shared library thus making the packages completely useless.
I would expect a setting set to pop up in the KDE system settings.

Problem: The library is currently installed in
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/kcm_systemd.so
instead of
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/kcm_systemd.so

[Testcase]
On a Kubuntu vivid system, run 'kcmshell5 kcm_systemd'. You should see an error message as shown in comment #3.
After installing the proposed package, run 'kcmshell5 kcm_systemd', you should now see the configuration dialog.

[Regression Potential]
None as the package is pretty much unusable.
Regarding the changes to debian/rules:
 - as-needed is covered by pkg-kde-tools
 - hardening is covered by hardening-includes

I have determined that the problem lies in either the search path or the install path.

Running `kcmshell5 kcm_systemd` yields

Error loading plugin "kcm_systemd" "The shared library was not found."
Plugin search paths are ("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins", "/usr/bin")
The environment variable QT_PLUGIN_PATH might be not correctly set

and a simple dpkg -L kde-config-systemd says that the path to kcm_systemd is /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/kcm_systemd.so so that's obviously not going to work.

Now I just need to determine if we should change the install path or modify the search path.
