Bug Description

Due to a bug in QML it's impossible to set focusOnTab, but this is vital because in most cases keyboard tab navigation is in fact desirable but focus shouldn't be grabbed on tap/ click.

Possible work-around: expose focusOnTab by re-declaring it inside UCStyledItemBase.
Catch: Only seems to work inside the implementation of the components, not in an app merely using components, so not sufficient for all use cases.

New property: as awkward as it may seem we could also have eg. focusOnKeyboardNavigation, avoiding the QML bug altogether.
Catch: possibly unexpected to app developers and needs to be well-communicated and documented.

  [ Zoltán Balogh ]
  * Enable building the UITK tests in any case.
  * Remove Q_Q(UCStyledItemBase) because of unused variable warning.
  * Resolve Trusty specific compiler issue not resolving QPointer data on
    connections.
  * Use only the object name when selecting sections and labels in tests.

  [Zsombor Egri ]
  * Update BottomEdge with UI/UX agreed during the sprint. Fixes LP: #1368811.
  * BottomEdge component. Fixes LP: #1368811.
  * Remove build failure on Xenial caused by deprecated Qt functions.
  * Fix BottomEdgeHint consumes activeFocusOnPress handling. Fixes LP: #1517777
  * Migrate DirectionalDragArea from Unity8, named as SwipeArea. Original code
    (from lp:unity8) by: Daniel d'Andrada <email address hidden>.
  * Delete QQuickView when the application quits. Fixing segfault caused by the
    dangling objects in GestireDetector.
  * BottomEdgeHint API changes, deprecating state property, introducing locked
    property to drive visuals lock and click handling.
  * Fixing CheckBox and Switch getting checked property altered after clicked()
    signal is emitted. Fixes LP: #1510919.
  * Add ListItem.swipeEnabled property to block swiping when overlay MouseArea
    is used to drag content. Fixes swiping when leading/trailing actions list
    is empty. Fixes LP: #1500409, LP: #1500416.
  * Follow the new design in BottomEdgeHint.
  * Provide import version information for StyledItem and remove theme.version
    obsolete property.
  * Use QQuickItemChangeListener to listen parent changes, skipping the meta
    object model. Convert UCThemingExtension into a Q_INTERFACE so object_cast<>
    can work with it saving the need to memorise on an item whether it is an
    extended item or not.
  * Set mouseAttached to false to revert regression in UITK gallery.
  * Remove BottomEdgeHint from UITK gallery's MainPage.qml which occludes with
    the bottom-up dragging of the ListView.

  [ Loïc Molinari ]
  * UbuntuShape - Fixed deprecation logging issues.
  * This fix prevents logging a deprecation warning for "image", "color" and
    "gradientColor" properties when the import version is less than 1.3. The
    logging of properties used internally (through the old image wrapper) have
    been removed too since the user might not even have used them.
    Fixes LP: #1519414.

  [ Christian Dywan ]
  * Enable gallery target in qmake.
  * Don't set activeFocusOnPress on TextField but on child only.
