It seems like it is impossible to override the splash default to something else than the default theme as it appears to be hardcoded.
This PR works around that by simply setting the initial
~/.config/ksplashrcconfig for new users through/etc/skel/.I had also tried doing the same for
~/.config/kdedefaults/ksplashrcto still have this as a user-default, but that file got overwritten with the theme-default splash when the user loaded into the desktop.Not really a perfect solution, as it would have been better/cleaner to have this as a default (so resetting settings in the GUI doesn't enable the splash screen again), but better than nothing.
Closes #926.
