Removal of crashes plugin

Hello!

With the new konqueror session management the crashes plugin is redundant and
absolete. Here I attach three patches which remove the crashes plugin
completly... I think. Maybe there's any other part of it that I'm missing? I
think not but I'm not 100% sure.

Should I apply them to trunk?

Greetings,
       Eduardo Robles Elvira.

Sorry for interrupting, but I'm not sure if the crashes plugin is redundant in light of the new session management. If anything, I think it's a more advanced way of recovering from crashes. Two things that it has over the new session management feature (afaik) is that:

1. It saves a list of all previous crashes;

2. It saves the list for all opened konqueror sessions that crash. If you have two konqueror windows open and both of them crash, you'll have both sessions in the list of crashes, and you can pick which ones to restore.

I don't know the new session management will have those 2 features, but imho those are enough to spare it from being removed.

Well if two sessions crash, the new session manager will let you recover both.
I wrote a patch for the session management to automatically save the detected
crashes as sessions which can be recovered in File > Sessions.. but it seems
I didn't commit it yet. I will see when I can commit it (4.2?) and I will
raise this topic again then ;-)
