Splashscreens are assigned type dialog instead of splash

[OmegaRogue]

Windows with

_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_SPLASH, _KDE_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_OVERRIDE, _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL

Seem to get the type dialoginstead of the type splash

How to reproduce the issue:

open freecad or kdenlive or potentially other applications with a splashscreen with a _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE reported by xprop as

_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_SPLASH, _KDE_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_OVERRIDE, _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL

Actual result:

The window type of the splashscreen is dialog

Expected result:

The type of the splashscreen window should be splash
