This reverts commit 657525965b.
The change relied on reading the last value of the
CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED_VERSION variable before one of the Qt packages
is found to use it for the version check.
Even if a user project has a cmake_minimum_required() right at
the beginning of the project with a supported version specified,
the first project() call which loads a CMake toolchain file could
contain another cmake_minimum_required() call with a lower
(unsupported) version and that version would be used for the check,
failing the project configuration.
The Android NDK ships such a toolchain file, which requires version
'3.6'.
Thus, relying on the last value of CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED_VERSION is
not robust enough.

Qt6Config.cmake calls cmake_minimum_required to ensure a recent enough
CMake version is used in projects.
That call does not set policies in the calling subdirectory scope,
because find_package introduces a new policy scope.
If a project using Qt has a 'cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.1)'
call and is configured with a recent CMake, many policies will
still be set to OLD.
One such policy is CMP0071 (Run AUTOMOC on GENERATED files). The
policy value is queried at generation time rather than at target
definition time, which means we can't influence the policy value
(e.g. inside the implementation of qt_add_executable for example)
The inability to influence the policy value for targets created by our
own CMake functions is unfortunate and can lead to issues (in the case
of the above policy to compilation / linker issues).
Record the version of the last cmake_minimum_required call before
the Qt packages are found and error out if the version is lower than
the minimum supported one.
A project can reduce the error into a warning by specifying a
-DQT_FORCE_MIN_CMAKE_VERSION_FOR_USING_QT_IN_CMAKE_MIN_REQUIRED=3.xyz
option when configuring the project.
If the option is used and build issues arise, no official support is
given.
All the CMake example projects shipped with Qt specify a minimum
version of 3.16 already (which is the minimum for shared Qt builds),
so it shouldn't be an issue to require that in other user projects as
well.
Implementation wise, we follow the existing pattern to record
what the minimum and computed versions for static and shared Qt
builds are at qtbase configure time.
These are then checked before the Qt6 or QtFoo packages are
find_package'd.

Mention that a package is not found in case if the main target exposed

If the target is not found, mention that it might be due to
QT_NO_CREATE_TARGETS being set to TRUE (when it is set to true).
If it is set to true, the assumption is that the target must have been
defined by something else before the find_package call (either an
earlier find_package call without QT_NO_CREATE_TARGETS set to TRUE or
maybe it's the use case of Qt being built together with its examples
or it's a super build).
Unset _Qt_NOTFOUND_MESSAGE to ensure that the Qt6 not found error
message is not spilled into any subsequent find_package(Qt6) calls,
causing a cascade of unwarranted warnings / errors.
Make sure to unset it only if components were specified, so the
message is not shown or unset in any of the recursive
find_package(Qt6) calls which is a dependency for regular Qt module
packages.
This works fine, because find_package(Qt6) calls with components are
only done in project code and not done by the transitive dependency
code (which looks for Qt6Foo packages directly).

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.

When building qtdeclarative against a static iOS qtbase build,
QtNetwork is find_package'd twice, once in the top level
CMakeLists.txt file, and once by the qtuiotouchplugin which has
Network as a dependency.
This meant that the static plugins that Network exposes had
auto import cpp files generated twice, which failed the configuration
of qtdeclarative.
To fix this, don't generate the same file more than once.
To do that, protect the inclusion of the FooPlugins.cmake file, to
only be included once in every directory scope. That can be achieved
by setting a variable to TRUE when the target does not exist yet.
If the target exists in the same scope, that means that find_package()
was called a second time in the same scope, so there is no need
to include the Plugins file.

A non-prefix build is a build where you don't have to run
make install.
To do a non-prefix build, pass -DFEATURE_developer_build=ON when
invoking CMake on qtbase. Note that this of course also enables
developer build features (private tests, etc).
When doing a non-prefix build, the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX cache variable
will point to the qtbase build directory.
Tests can be run without installing Qt (QPA plugins are picked up from
the build dir).
This patch stops installation of any files by forcing the
make "install" target be a no-op.
When invoking cmake on the qtsvg module (or any other module),
the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable should be set to the qtbase build
directory.
The developer-build feature is propagated via the QtCore Config file,
so that when building other modules, you don't have to specify it
on the command line again.
As a result of the change, all libraries, plugins, tools, include dirs,
CMake Config files, CMake Targets files, Macro files, etc,
will be placed in the qtbase build directory, mimicking the file layout
of an installed Qt file layout.
Only examples and tests are kept in the separate module build
directories, which is equivalent to how qmake does it.
The following global variables contain paths for the
appropriate prefix or non prefix builds:
QT_BUILD_DIR, QT_INSTALL_DIR, QT_CONFIG_BUILD_DIR,
QT_CONFIG_INSTALL_DIR. These should be used by developers
when deciding where files should be placed.
All usages of install() are replaced by qt_install(), which has some
additional logic on how to handle associationg of CMake targets to
export names.
When installing files, some consideration should be taken if
qt_copy_or_install() needs to be used instead of qt_install(),
which takes care of copying files from the source dir to the build dir
when doing non-prefix builds.
Tested with qtbase and qtsvg, developer builds, non-developer builds
and static developer builds on Windows, Linux and macOS.

This change introduces a new function called qt_find_package()
which can take an extra option called PROVIDED_TARGETS, which
associates targets with the package that defines those targets.
This is done by setting the INTERFACE_QT_PACKAGE_NAME and
INTERFACE_QT_PACKAGE_VERSION properties on the imported targets.
This information allows us to generate appropriate find_dependency()
calls in a module's Config file for third party libraries.
For example when an application links against QtCore, it should also
link against zlib and atomic libraries. In order to do that, the
library locations first have to be found by CMake. This is achieved by
embedding find_dependency(ZLIB) and find_dependency(Atomic) in
Qt5CoreDependencies.cmake which is included by Qt5CoreConfig.cmake.
The latter is picked up when an application project contains
find_package(Qt5Core), and thus all linking dependencies are resolved.
The information 'which package provides which targets' is contained
in the python json2cmake conversion script. The generated output of
the script contains qt_find_package() calls that represent that
information.
The Qt5CoreDependencies.cmake file and which which dependencies it
contains is generated at the QtPostProcess stop.
Note that for non-static Qt builds, we only need to propagate public
3rd party libraries. For static builds, we need all third party
libraries.
In order for the INTERFACE_QT_PACKAGE_NAME property to be read in any
scope, the targets on which the property is set, have to be GLOBAL.
Also for applications and other modules to find all required third
party libraries, we have to install all our custom Find modules, and
make sure they define INTERFACE IMPORTED libraries, and not just
IMPORTED libraries.
