grantletheme: fix loading in kmail/kontact

This fixes a 5 year old bug (old enough to go to school) where kmail was
not able show emails (also appeared in kontact).

fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/160599

The solution is not pretty but effective and involves
working around the broken search path of kde related libraries.
