Tray icon category is incorrect

[wongandj]

Describe the bug

Currently, the "Category" of Nheko's system tray icon under Linux is reported to be ApplicationStatus. This causes Nheko's icon to be sorted incorrectly and appear in the wrong places in system trays. It should be Communications instead: see the Freedesktop specification for tray items.

To Reproduce

1. Start Nheko with the tray icon enabled.
2. Use D-Feet (or other preferred D-Bus debugging tool) and query Nheko's /StatusNotifierItem/org.kde.StatusNotifierItem:Category.
3. Observe how it is reported as ApplicationStatus, not Communications.

What happened?

/StatusNotifierItem/org.kde.StatusNotifierItem:Category is reported to be ApplicationStatus. It is placed among apps like Cantata (music player) and KeepassXC (password manager), instead of apps like Quassel (IRC client).

Expected behavior

/StatusNotifierItem/org.kde.StatusNotifierItem:Category should be Communications, so that it is placed in the right location.

It seems Qt doesn't provide implementation of StatusNotifierItem.

What do you mean? Quassel is an example of a Qt app that has a tray icon with the "Communications" category, if it helps.

@brosasaki I mean Qt doesn't provide API of changing category of StatusNotifierItem.

Quassel uses code from KStatusNotifierItem (KDE Implementation of StatusNotifierItems): https://github.com/quassel/quassel/blob/master/src/qtui/statusnotifieritem.cpp

This contains code from KStatusNotifierItem, part of the KDE libs
