Bug description:
The appmenu-qt5 code has hardcoded Xlib calls that cause Unity 8 (or
any other Qt-based applicaiton) to die on startup when run on Mir
instead of X11.
This library extension should either not hardcode X11 (preferred) or
check for the presence of a $DISPLAY environment variable and avoid
code paths that assume X11.
The Unity 8 desktop currently has a hard-coded check for
$QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME and unsets it as a workaround.
