Detailed Description

   @brief An empty layout item
   \internal

   The AutoSpacerLayoutItem is automatically put into each corner cell of
   the planeLayout grid: one of its reference-layouts is a QVBoxLayout (for
   the top, or bottom axes resp.), the other one is a QHBoxLayout (for the
   left/right sided axes).

   The spacer reserves enough space so all of the AbstractAreas contained
   in the two reference-layouts can display not only their in-bounds
   content but also their overlapping content reaching out of their area.

   KChart's layouting is applying this schema:

   A typical use case is an Abscissa axis with long labels:

    2 -|
       |
    1 -|
       |
    0 -+------------------------------------
       |        |        |        |        |
    Monday  Tuesday  Wednesday Thursday Friday

The last letters of the word "Friday" would have been cut off in previous versions of KChart - that is if you did not call KChart::Chart::setGlobalLeading().

Now the word will be shown completely because there is an auto-spacer-item taking care for the additional space needed in the lower/right corner.
