The mold linker is a new linker for Linux that provides faster link
times compared to BFD ld, ld.gold and lld.
It can be found at https://github.com/rui314/mold
To build Qt with mold, ensure that the binary in your PATH and then
configure Qt with with either
cmake /path/to/qtbase -DINPUT_linker=mold
or
/path/to/qtbase/configure --linker mold
The change was tested with gcc 9, clang 10, clang 12, mold
1.0.0. Only qtbase and qtdeclarative (and dependencies) were tested.

The -coverage argument merely added compiler flags for the Qt build. It
was never properly ported to the CMake build, and it doesn't seem
feasible to have configure arguments for every possible compiler option.
The same can be achieved by passing the needed compiler option to CMake,
for example: CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc-guard

Ensure that Qt user projects build with sanitizer flags if Qt was
configured with any of the sanitizers enabled.
To compile Qt with sanitizer support enable any of Qt sanitizer
features.
Passing -DECM_ENABLE_SANITIZERS=address to CMake is NOT supported
anymore.
When configuring Qt using CMake directly, pass
-DFEATURE_sanitizer_address=ON
-DFEATURE_sanitizer_undefined=ON
instead of
-DECM_ENABLE_SANITIZERS=address;undefined
When configuring Qt with the configure script pass
-sanitize address -sanitize undefined
as usual.
QtConfig.cmake now records the sanitizer options that should be
enabled for all consuming projects based on the enabled Qt features.
This applies to internal Qt builds as well as well as tests an
examples.
The recorded sanitizer options are assigned to the ECM_ENABLE_SANITIZERS
variable in the directory scope where find_package(Qt6) is called.
The ECMEnableSanitizers module is included to add the necessary flags to
all targets in that directory scope or its children.
This behavior can be opted out by setting the
QT_NO_ADD_SANITIZER_OPTIONS variable in projects that use Qt and might
be handling sanitizer options differently.

Add new configure option -make minimal-static-tests and CMake option
QT_BUILD_MINIMAL_STATIC_TESTS. In conjunction with QT_BUILD_TESTS
it will enable building a minimal subset of tests when targeting
a static desktop Qt build.
In qtbase the minimal subset includes all the auto tests of testlib,
tools, corelib and cmake. In particular this will also do cmake build
tests and qmake build tests (tst_qmake)
Adjust CI instructions to enable building a minimal subset of static
tests when a platform configuration is tagged with the
MinimalStaticTests feature.
Fix and skip a few tests that were failing.

Extend '-[no]make' option to pass benchmark. Rework

Also looks like it doesn't make sense to enable benchmarks without
having test enabled. So '-DQT_BUILD_BENCHMARKS' enables test as own

If '-make examples -no-compile-examples' was specified, sources of Qt's
examples would be installed, but the examples would not be built.
This switch has always been a source for confusion and is only
interesting for distributors, who can just package the examples

We extend configurejson2cmake to read the "commandline"
information from configure.json. This data is then translated to CMake function
calls and written it into commandline.cmake files.
We extend QtProcessConfigureArgs.cmake to pick up those commandline.cmake
files to feed our command line handling code, which is a
re-implementation of the command line handling in qt_configure.prf.
The command line handler sets INPUT_xxx variables, similar to
configure/qmake's config.input.xxx variables. The INPUT_xxx values are
translated
- to -DFEATURE_xxx=ON/OFF arguments if the input represents a feature,
- to corresponding CMake variables if such a variable is known,
- or to -DINPUT_xxx=yyy CMake arguments.
Configure arguments that have an entry in
cmake/configure-cmake-mapping.md are actually implemented. Other
arguments are likely to need more work.
