[Qt-qml] Application usable area dimensions

[Romain Pokrzywka]

If you have access to the QDeclarativeEngine, you can get that information very easily by importing the QDesktopWidget 
from QApplication into the qml root context, e.g. :

	QApplication app(argc, argv);
	QDeclarativeView view;
	view.engine()->rootContext()->setContextProperty( "desktop", app.desktop() );

and then in your qml file e.g. :

	Rectangle {
		width: desktop.width; height: desktop.height
	}

Cheers,
Romain
