This patch changes k-d-s to not install /etc/kubuntu-default-settings/hidden-root anymore and removes /.hidden symbolic link in case it points to hidden-root file.

I have tested this on up-to-date Kubuntu Edgy i386 and have simulated different combinations of /.hidden file:
- /.hidden does not exist
- /.hidden is symbolic link, but points elsewhere
- /.hidden is regular file
- /.hidden points to /etc/kubuntu-default-settings/hidden-root

Only last case removes /.hidden symbolic link and gives user back pre-edgy state.
