Improve private method KFileItemModel::expansionLevelsCompare()

Get rid of the hack to access the m_itemData member for getting
the parent of an item during sorting. ItemData has been extended
by a parent-member which allows a fast and save way to do this.

Sadly this makes the unit-test for expansionLevelsCompare() more
complex and it has been temporary deactivated. I'll take care to
fix this during the next week.
