Took a while because i am busy with graduation stuff, but I can finally add the modern clock widget that i made to the repository.

It just adds a modern looking clock like the ones usually seen in wallpaper engine backgrounds.
You can change the font, colour and opacity.

The preview image is 960 wide but the height is a bit thinner as else it would just take up useless space. If it really needs to be 960x540 i can change it of course.

It has the free anurati regular font in the repository if that's alright. Just to make it easier for people to install it, if it's not allowed i'll remove it and tell people to download it online.

Also my first time doing something remotely with qml so any feedback is appreciated.

Just to add real quick, i know there is a commit of me adding it to registry but i removed it later. Else i couldn't get it to find it in the noctalia plugin rep ;_;

Added a note regarding custom font issues and support contact.

I would recommend using the desktopWidgetSettings so that if a user wants to, they can use multiple clocks on their desktop :)

@spiros132 Ahh i see what you mean, overlooked the part where if you change the settings it applies to all of them. Will do that thank you :)
