The version of powerdevil we're using prints a few debug messages every time an
inhibition is triggered, including some spurious messages about not being able
to contact consolekit. This can cause a lot of spam in the system journal,
especially when a web browser or other application that plays video is running,
because such applications often trigger such inhibitions very frequently.
A recent upstream commit to powerdevil changes the logging behavior of the
program so that it doesn't print debug messages anymore. This commit backports
that patch to our version of powerdevil (5.17.5).

- Update from Plasma 5.7.0 to 5.7.1.
- Remove the version number from the directory storing the Plasma Nix
expressions. It is not necessary to version the Nix expressions now
that we keep only one version in Nixpkgs.
- Fix a bug in generate-kde-plasma.sh which prevented it from finding
its helper script.
- Automatically redirect the output of generate-kde-plasma.sh to make
the update script even easier to use.
