  1. Add Polkit Quick Unlock Support 

    Closes keepassxreboot#5991
Closes keepassxreboot#3337 - Support fingerprint readers on Linux

Polkit allows for authentication of many means, including fingerprint scanning. Furthermore, a common interface for Quick Unlocking has been implemented, and has been replaced throughout to make implementing other quick unlock strategies easier.

Refactor QuickUnlock to use UUID stored in headers. This is a new feature using the KDBX 4 standard to store a randomly generated UUID in the public headers of the database. This enables identification of KDBX file without relying on path or filename and will eventually support persistent Quick Unlock.
