CMake: Create plugin initializers for static user plugins Previously we only created object library static plugin initializers for Qt plugins only, not user-project plugins. The reason was that if a user tried to install the plugin target via an export set, CMake would error out saying that the _init library is not part of the same export set. Introduce an OUTPUT_TARGETS option that would allow projects to get the name of the generated _init target, so they can install it if needed. This was already done for qt6_add_qml_module, so we just introduce the same option for qt6_add_plugin. Now user static plugins will have an _init target created, which will be propagated to consumers whenever the consumers link against the plugin itself. We also need an internal option to disable this propagation, because it's handled a bit differently for Qt plugins which can be linked either via finalizers or via usage requirements. Amends 91c65dd80cdd2de666448c14202c0c63718152b6 As a result of the implementation change, cleanup example projects to ensure that they build successfully (the important part is specifying the CLASS_NAME). Only plugandpaint works properly with both shared and static Qt builds. echoplugin works with a shared Qt build, but not a static one due to some assumptions in the C++ code about shared plugins. styleplugin doesn't seem to work properly neither with shared Qt builds nor static Qt builds, at least on macOS. But it builds fine. For some reason even if the plugin is found, the style is not applied.

Add plugins to Qt tools and executables for static builds In static builds, we cannot allow any part of the main build to make a call to find_package(Qt6...) where such a call may load a Qt6*Plugins.cmake file. That would add additional dependencies to the main module targets, setting up a circular dependency in the set of *Config.cmake files which cannot be resolved. This scenario would be triggered by per-repo builds or user projects. But Qt's tools and other executables still need to load some plugins in static builds. Sometimes a platform plugin may be enough, other times we may want all supportable plugins (e.g. Qt Designer). Therefore, add all plugins we can identify as relevant for an executable that is part of the Qt build, but add them directly to the executable without affecting the linking relationships between the main module libraries. Also remove the now unnecessary check for QT_BUILD_PROJECT_NAME in top level builds because there should be no difference between per-repo and top level builds any more (as far as linking static plugins is concerned). Examples that build as part of the main build will still build successfully after this change, but they will not run if they require a platform plugin. Examples need to be moved out to a separate build where they can call find_package(Qt6) without QT_NO_CREATE_TARGETS set to TRUE to be runnable (see QTBUG-90820).

CMake: Build plugin initializers as object libs Instead of compiling the plugin initializers as part of a user project, pre-compile them as object libraries while building Qt. The installed object libraries can then be used with target_sources(qt_module INTERFACE $<TARGET_OBJECTS:plugin_init>) so that they are linked into the final executable or shared library via qt module usage requirement propagation. This reduces the build times of user projects. The link line placement of the object files should be correct for all linux-y linkers because the only dependency for the object files is Core and the Gui -> plugin -> Gui -> Core cycle does not hamper that from empirical observations. As a consequence of the recent change not to link plugin initialization object files into static libraries, as well not having to compile the files in user projects, we can get rid of the _qt_internal_disable_static_default_plugins calls in various places. A side note. Consider a user static library (L) that links to a Qt static library (Gui) which provides plugins (platform plugins). If there is an executable (E) that links to (L), with no direct dependency to any other Qt module and the intention is that the executable will automatically get the platform plugin linked, then (L) needs to link PUBLIC-ly to (Gui) so that the plugin usage requirements are propagated successfully. This is a limitation of using target_sources(qt_module INTERFACE $<TARGET_OBJECTS:plugin_init>) which will propagate object files across static libraries only if qt_module is linked publicly. One could try to use target_link_libraries(qt_module INTERFACE $<TARGET_OBJECTS:plugin_init>) which preserves the linker arguments across static libs even if qt_module is linked privately, but unfortunately CMake will lose dependency information on Core, which means the object files might be placed in the wrong place on the link line. As far as I know this is a limitation of CMake that can't be worked around at the moment. Note this behavior was present before this change as well.

CMake: Allow promoting the Qt libraries to be global targets User projects can set the QT_PROMOTE_TO_GLOBAL_TARGETS variable to true so that the various imported targets created by find_package(Qt6) are promoted to global targets. This would allow a project to find Qt packages in a subdirectory scope while using those Qt targets from a different scope. E.g. it fixes errors like CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:5 (target_link_libraries): Error evaluating generator expression: $<TARGET_OBJECTS:Qt6::Widgets_resources_1> Objects of target "Qt6::Widgets_resources_1" referenced but no such target exists. when trying to use a static Qt from a sibling scope. Various 3rd party dependency targets (like Atomic or ZLIB) are not made global due to limitations in CMake, but as long as those targets are not mentioned directly, it shouldn't cause issues. The targets are made global in the generated QtFooAdditionalTargetInfo.cmake file. To ensure that resource object libraries promoted, the generation of the file has to be done at the end of the defining scope where qt_internal_export_additional_targets_file is called, which is achieved with a deferred finalizer. Replaced all occurrences of target promotion with a helper function which allows tracing of all promoted targets by specifying --log-level=debug to CMake.

CMake: Enable NEW policies by CMake version with a global default When a CMake release introduces a new policy that affects most Qt modules, it may be appropriate to make each module aware of that newer CMake version and use the NEW policy without raising the minimum CMake version requirement. To reduce the churn associated with making that change across all Qt modules individually, this change allows it to be updated in a central place (qtbase), but in a way that allows a Qt module to override it in its own .cmake.conf file if required (e.g. to address the issues identified by policy warnings at a later time). The policies are modified at the start of the call to qt_build_repo_begin(). For commands defined by the qtbase module, qtbase needs to be in control of the policy settings at the point where those commands are defined. The above mechanism should not affect the policy settings for these commands, so the various *Config.cmake.in files must not specify policy ranges in a way that a Qt module's .cmake.conf file could influence. Starting with CMake 3.12, policies can be specified as a version range with the cmake_minimum_required() and cmake_policy() commands. All policies introduced in CMake versions up to the upper limit of that range will be set to NEW. The actual version of CMake being used only has to be at least the lower limit of the specified version range. This change uses cmake_minimum_required() rather than cmake_policy() due to the latter not halting further processing upon failure.

One could try to use target_link_libraries(qt_module INTERFACE $<TARGET_OBJECTS:plugin_init>) which preserves the linker arguments across static libs even if qt_module is linked privately, but unfortunately CMake will lose dependency information on Core, which means the object files might be placed in the wrong place on the link line. As far as I know this is a limitation of CMake that can't be worked around at the moment. Note this behavior was present before this change as well.

CMake: Build plugin initializers as object libs Instead of compiling the plugin initializers as part of a user project, pre-compile them as object libraries while building Qt. The installed object libraries can then be used with target_sources(qt_module INTERFACE $<TARGET_OBJECTS:plugin_init>) so that they are linked into the final executable or shared library via qt module usage requirement propagation. This reduces the build times of user projects. The link line placement of the object files should be correct for all linux-y linkers because the only dependency for the object files is Core and the Gui -> plugin -> Gui -> Core cycle does not hamper that from empirical observations. As a consequence of the recent change not to link plugin initialization object files into static libraries, as well not having to compile the files in user projects, we can get rid of the _qt_internal_disable_static_default_plugins calls in various places. A side note. Consider a user static library (L) that links to a Qt static library (Gui) which provides plugins (platform plugins). If there is an executable (E) that links to (L), with no direct dependency to any other Qt module and the intention is that the executable will automatically get the platform plugin linked, then (L) needs to link PUBLIC-ly to (Gui) so that the plugin usage requirements are propagated successfully. This is a limitation of using target_sources(qt_module INTERFACE $<TARGET_OBJECTS:plugin_init>) which will propagate object files across static libraries only if qt_module is linked publicly.
