Prior to 2.3, the initial panel was populated (under LXQt sessions)
even without panel.conf in /etc, because the stock panel.conf was in
/usr/share/lxqt [1].  lxqt-panel now not installing panel.conf reverts
back to the default empty panel for all sessions unless
lxqt-branding-debian is installed, which feels like the opposite
direction of the fix for [1].

It would be nice if the panel started with widgets even without
lxqt-branding-debian, but I understand if you consider this a corner
case.  Maybe Debian's lxqt-panel could continue to install it under
/usr/share/lxqt, if lxqt-branding-debian is more important?
