[Bug 1497539] [NEW] Replace Ktorrent with a more functional torrent client

[Afiefh]

Public bug reported:

Hello,

Ktorrent hasn't had a new release in two years,  the last real commit to
the ktorrent repository was on 2014-12-19 and to the libktorrent
repository on 2014-05-28. It doesn't work out of the box (trouble
accepting magnet links from chrome/chromium) and other issues.

There are other clients that provide a more streamlined experience and
are more actively developed such as Qbittorrent (similar GUI to
Ktorrent) and Qtransmission both of which don't suffer from KTorrent's
issues.

Thanks
