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.

Enables the use of e.g. QT_NO_DEBUG in compiler flags, -fPIC, passing on of
QT_NAMESPACE, etc. pp.
Dropping a lot of custom code which handled adding imported targets for
the command-line tools (this is all being handled by CMake already).
It needs to be investigated if we need to resurrect
Qt5GuiConfigExtras.cmake.in in one way or the other.

For now create targets a la "Qt5::Core" to stay compatible with the
current Qt5 naming scheme. The name is controllable via a CMake option.

Introduce a new cached variable INSTALL_CMAKE_NAMESPACE for defining the
prefix used for CMake config files (c.f. "${PREFIX}Core/${PREFIX}CoreConfig.cmake")
Also make sure to `find_dependency(...)` the required packages inside
the individual CMake config files. I.e. in Qt5WidgetsConfig.cmake,
search for Qt5Core, etc. pp..

This is less self-contained than what we have, but significantly speeds
up cmake configure/generate runs.
This patch also warns when a feature is already defined.
