Subject: [PATCH] Fix QtDBus deadlock inside kded/kiod

Whenever a message spy was installed, we failed to actually process
looped-back messages by queueing them for processing by the spy. That
had as a consequence that the caller got an error reply. Worse, since
the message had been queued, QtDBus would attempt to deliver it later.
Since that message had isLocal==true, bad things happened inside the
manager thread.

The correct solution is not to queue the message for the filter. If the
message is local, then simply deliver directly, as we're still in the
user's thread. This used to be the behavior in Qt 5.5.

Task-number: QTBUG-51676
