Implement widget-specific options and installation for third-party widgets.

[HeitorAugustoLN]

Objective

Create widget-specific options to facilitate the configuration and installation of third-party widgets in KDE Plasma environments. This enhancement aims to broaden user customization options within plasma-manager by making it easy to install and customize third-party widgets into the Plasma desktop environment, thereby enriching the user experience with plasma-manager.

Things needed to do

For each widget that will be implemented, there are three things that need to be done:

1. Package the widget
2. Make it available in nixpkgs
3. Implement the widget-specific options in plasma-manager

Current progress

Widget packaging

As of now, there is currently only one (that I know of) widget package available in nixpkgs for Plasma 6. And another one (that I know of) with a pull request open in nixpkgs. Them being:

In nixpkgs

I reckon this is done now and that the further discussions can be held in the pr-s for future widgets
