  @brief Makes it possible to share a selection in multiple views which do not have the same source model
 
  Although <a href="https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/model-view-programming.html#handling-selections-of-items">multiple views can share the same QItemSelectionModel</a>,
  the views then need to have the same source model.
 
  If there is a proxy model between the model and one of the views, or different proxy models in each, this class makes
  it possible to share the selection between the views.
 
  @image html kproxyitemselectionmodel-simple.png "Sharing a QItemSelectionModel between views on the same model is trivial"
  @image html kproxyitemselectionmodel-error.png "If a proxy model is used, it is no longer possible to share the QItemSelectionModel directly"
  @image html kproxyitemselectionmodel-solution.png "A KLinkItemSelectionModel can be used to map the selection through the proxy model"
 
  @code
    QAbstractItemModel *model = getModel();
 
    QSortFilterProxyModel *proxy = new QSortFilterProxyModel();
    proxy->setSourceModel(model);
 
    QTreeView *view1 = new QTreeView(splitter);
    view1->setModel(model);
 
    KLinkItemSelectionModel *view2SelectionModel = new KLinkItemSelectionModel( proxy, view1->selectionModel());
 
    QTreeView *view2 = new QTreeView(splitter);
    // Note that the QAbstractItemModel passed to KLinkItemSelectionModel must be the same as what is used in the view
    view2->setModel(proxy);
    view2->setSelectionModel( view2SelectionModel );
