  systemsettings uses KCModuleInfo::service() to check whether the moduleinfo 
is valid[1], the problem is creating a KPluginInfo from the KService based on a 
.desktop file with X-KDE-ServiceTypes=SystemSettingsExternalApp fails because 
it doesn't seem to have valid metadata. Since the KPluginInfo ctor fails, 
accessing d->pluginInfo.service() causes a crash, I've submitted a proposed fix 
at [2]. This doesn't fix the bug, but merely prevents the crash.
