Marco Allegretti 8dd3bfbb07 tools: install local preview QML stubs 
openSUSE Tumbleweed's plasma6-nm 6.6.4 does not ship the org.kde.plasma.networkmanagement.cellular QML submodule that SignalStrengthInfo.qml imports unconditionally. Without it the MobileShell QML namespace fails to load and preview boots to a black screen.

Keep a minimal fallback module under tools/preview-stubs and install it only for local .prefix preview installs by default, with SHIFT_INSTALL_PREVIEW_QML_STUBS=AUTO/ON/OFF for explicit control. Add a CTest guard so qmldir entries stay backed by real files and the fallback remains tied to the QML import tree.

Preview-only QML stubs

These stub modules satisfy QML imports that upstream Plasma Mobile expects but that are not provided by the QML packages shipped on the host distro used for preview/development.

They are installed only for local preview prefixes by default: SHIFT_INSTALL_PREVIEW_QML_STUBS=AUTO enables installation when CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX ends in .prefix. Set it to ON to force installation for another prefix, or OFF to disable it. Production installs using normal system prefixes leave these stubs out.

Current stubs

  • org/kde/plasma/networkmanagement/cellular/ — CellularModemList, CellularModem. Required by components/mobileshell/qml/dataproviders/SignalStrengthInfo.qml. openSUSE Tumbleweed's plasma6-nm 6.6.4 package does not ship this QML submodule (only the cellular KCM .so). Without the stub the entire MobileShell QML namespace fails to load and the homescreen is blank.

When the host distro starts providing a real module at the same import path, disable the local fallback by configuring with SHIFT_INSTALL_PREVIEW_QML_STUBS=OFF before comparing against the system module.
