When using qt-cmake-standalone-test, we didn't tell CMake to use the
same C++ language standard that Qt used when it was configured.
We did tell CMake to do that when configuring tests with
qt-internal-configure-tests via the qt_build_tests macro.
To ensure the proper standard is set, we also need to
find_package(Qt6Core), because the std flag is derived from the
QT_FEATURE_cxxyz flag which is set by Core.

Currently in order to compile a Qt6 test standalone one needs to use
the qt-cmake-standalone-test script which will load the
Qt6BuildInternals/QtStandaloneTestTemplateProject/CMakeLists.txt project
with the current test source directory to create a complete CMake project.
This commit will allow a test to have these lines at top:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.16)
if (NOT QT_BUILD_STANDALONE_TESTS AND NOT QT_BUILDING_QT)
project(a_qt_test LANGUAGES C CXX ASM)
find_package(Qt6BuildInternals COMPONENTS STANDALONE_TEST)
endif()
and be standalone and work with any IDE capable of loading CMake projects.

And also fix qt-cmake-standalone-test to work for prefix builds.
The gist of it is that we have to protect tests not to be installed
into the Qt install prefix, but we also have to make sure that the
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is not changed globally (via cache value),
so that reconfiguration still works.
This took way too long to figure out.

Before this patch there were a few ways to build tests
- Configure all tests as part of the repo build
- Configure all tests as part of the repo build, but don't build
tests by default (-DQT_NO_MAKE_TESTS=ON)
- Configure all tests as a standalone project in a separate build
dir using -QT_BUILD_STANDALONE_TESTS=ON
All of the above incur some time overhead due to the necessity
of configuring all tests.
Sometimes you just want to build ONE test (or a few).
To facilitate that use case, a new shell script called
bin/qt-cmake-standalone-test(.bat) can now be used to configure
and build one or more tests.
The script takes one single argument pointing to the desired test
project path and configures a generic template project that sets up
all the necessary Qt CMake private API, afterwards calling
add_subdirectory on the passed in project.
Example
$ path/to/qt/bin/qt-cmake-standalone-test ./tests/auto/gui/image/qicon
or
$ path/to/qt/bin/qt-cmake-standalone-test ./tests/auto/gui/image
After that, simply run 'ninja && ctest' to build and run the test(s).
This is the CMake equivalent of calling qmake on a test .pro file
(or on a tests SUBDIRS .pro file)
There are 3 details worth mentioning.
Due to the add_subdirectory call, the built artifacts will not
be in the top-level build dir, but rather in a nested build_dir.
The script currently can't handle more than one argument
(the path to the project), so you can't pass additional
-DFoo=bar arguments.
If a test uses a 3rd party library (like Threads::Threads)
which was not a public dependency for any of the Qt modules,
configuration will fail saying that the target was not found.
Perhaps we should consider recording these packages when
generating the StandaloneConfig.cmake files.
