Backports for LibreOffice 6.2 for the two commits:

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/67131/
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/67132/

With these commits, you will get the plain Qt5FilePicker that has all custom 
controls with "kde5" (but the file auto extension not yet working, s. comment 
17 -> to be handled separately).
For the "gtk3_kde5" case, all custom options except for the file autoextension 
checkbox are there.

Personally, I'm not sure whether investing time into adding the file
auto-extension to the gtk3_kde5 file picker (for the non-Plasma case)
makes much sense, since

1) kde5 is "the future" and will be used instead of gtk3_kde5 by default
from LibreOffice 6.2 (on KDE Plasma and LXQt desktops)

2) The idea of gtk3_kde5 is to use the stable gtk3 VCL plugin and just add a 
native KDE filepicker on top. Since LXQt cannot use that one anyway, there 
seems to be little value in using gtk3_kde5 over gtk3 anyway...
I'd rather suggest to change the order, so that LXQt prefers the plain gtk3 VCL 
plugin over the gtk3_kde5 one.

Any other opinions on this?
