Inappropriate dot grid icons in Desktop mode

List items on Discover's Sources page use a mobile UI for "on-demand controls"
on the Settings page, displaying a "slide to expose more controls" button on
the right side.

This goes against the Kirigami HIG in two ways:

1. On Demand controls
(https://community.kde.org/KDE_Visual_Design_Group/KirigamiHIG/CommandPatterns)
"If the main task for a list is selecting an item, but users often perform
"quick actions" on a single list item, use on-demand controls, which are shown
on mouse-over in pointing device oriented interfaces, and via a
"slide-to-reveal" handle in touch-based interfaces. "

2. Optimized convergence
https://community.kde.org/KDE_Visual_Design_Group/KirigamiHIG/Principles/OptimizedConverence
"Kirigami is not about simple "responsive" user interfaces, though (i.e. those
which just adapt their layout a bit), but really optimized ones. For example,
"pointing device + keyboard" UIs should use mouse-over/hover effects to reveal
inline controls, whereas touch UIs should use touch gestures."


The general conclusion is that these icons should appear on mouse hover when
you're in desktop mode, and should not always show the 3x3 "swipe here" dot
grid icon
