Discussion about separating LXQt theme support from kf6-core integration to avoid snap crashes; active multi-party discussion ongoing with no resolution yet.

Suggested action: keep open

Reason: The issue has active discussion (10 comments, last activity today) between KDE Neon and snapcraft contributors about architectural decisions around LXQt content snap integration. The reporter explicitly states they will 'try to get some concrete debugging done this weekend' and is working on a core26 branch. This is a valid task/discussion that requires continued coordination and should not be closed prematurely.

Issue body

### Check existing issues - [x] I've verified that this request isn't described by any existing issues. ### Request We absolutely cannot have integration of a feature we do not control. It has caused several issues, while fixed, sometimes months later. I am still getting bug reports though. I beleive it can be handled in the same way we do our breeze theme. This will be removed at the very least with core26. ### The problem it solves Crashing snaps. Integration we cannot control or fix when things break is unacceptable by the kde-neon maintainers.
