Disable group and related exclusions in LXQt definition

Per #112, excluding group specs just does not work in Kiwi at
present. For LXQt this is especially a problem because it means
the image fails to compose. The exclusion of m17n* *does* work
as it's a package spec, but because the exclusion of the
input-methods group does not work, dnf wants to install
ibus-typing-booster (part of input-methods), which requires
m17n-lib, and these conflicting requirements cause it to blow up.
So at least until the problem of not being able to exclude
groups is resolved, we should drop these.

Arguably, we should permanently stop excluding input-methods, at
least. Space constraints aren't as huge of a deal these days as
they used to be, on the whole; lots of folks have decent bandwidth,
lots of disk space, and large USB sticks. Input methods are
critical for CJK users; leaving them off the image makes it more or
less useless for them, which is a significant impairment. (Unless,
that is, input methods don't work properly in LXQt even if included
- I haven't tested this).
