Allow KConfigXT to use KSharedConfig::openStateConfig

Otherwise we force consumers to use the config location for state data,
which is what we are trying to avoid.

 In this case passing "Group2" as the 'groupname' parameter to the generated class
 will make it use group "Group2" for the entry "Text".
 
+By setting the stateConfig attribute of kcfgfile to "true", KSharedConfig::openStateConfig is used.
+This should be used when one stores volatile data, like window sizes or autocompletion texts.
+It is recommended to have at least two separate kcfg files for the different kinds of data.
+NOTE: This option is ignored when ForceStringFilename is set.

 By default, if <b>GlobalEnums</b> is set to false, a separate named enum will be generated
