in its current form, it was introduced only in 5.7, mostly as a side
effect of -external-hostbindir (which is now handled differently).
it only ever worked for the macOS and MinGW specs, as a side effect of
them supporting -sdk and -device-option (for good reasons), and was
supported only by the unix configure. it's not believed to be really
useful and complicates matters somewhat, so get rid of it again.
should it ever become actually relevant, it can be re-introduced
properly, probably along with a -host-sdk option for macOS.

instead of letting the specs validate themselves on each call, let them
only define a callback for use by the verifyspec configure test. this
is somewhat faster, and allows them to be loaded before qdevice.pri is
populated.

This separation makes it possible to make a
canadian cross build of Qt on a linux build machine.
The canadian cross build requires an external Qt that
runs on the build system.

The use of ccache leads to QMAKE_CXX definitions of the form:
QMAKE_CXX = $${CCACHE} $${CROSS_COMPILE}g++
The previous test required QMAKE_CXX to be a single valid (absolute or
QMAKE_PATH_ENV-relative) path to an existing file, which was not
compatible with definitions of QMAKE_CXX like the one above.
Fix this by using only the first value in QMAKE_CXX, which usually
points to the compiler executable, or to the ccache executable in the
above case.

don't use system("which") (which won't do what we want in a windows
shell), but scan PATH ourselves. as a bonus, this is also faster.
to avoid fetching and splitting the path multiple times, factor out a
function in spec_pre.prf.

Re-enable checking if the compiler is in the path. The previous
commit dealt with a user/spec author not setting CROSS_COMPILE and
then picking up the host g++. Re-add the 'which' check, but put it
after the sanity check for the CROSS_COMPILE variable. This check
assumes that QMAKE_CXX is of the form "${CROSS_COMPILE}g++".

QMAKE_CXX is initialized by default to gcc. As a result,
'which $QMAKE_CXX' always succeeds.
This change removes the 'which' check and makes it explicit
that CROSS_COMPILE is a mandatory option to -device mkspecs.

The current approach of forcing people to pass the fully qualified prefix
of their toolchain to the configure script is verbose and something of a
chore for people who use the same toolchain to target several devices.
This allows you to set a single toolchain for use with all Qt targets via:
qmake -set CROSS_COMPILE foo
You can still explicitly override this toolchain, as originally mandated,
with the configure time device-option arguments.

For some reference platforms and SDKs we will need to pass in
extra paths. Currently users have to modify the mkspec to adjust
paths or set environment variables that will be picked up.
This change introduces the -device <name> and -device-option
<key=value> option. The key value pairs will be written to a
qdevice.pri and can be used by the qmake.conf of the device spec.
The reason to not save the key value pairs in qconfig.pri is
becase of the fact that the device spec loads the qdevice.pri
earlier than the qconfig.pri. qdevice.pri allows the mkspec
to set the compiler flags and qconfig.pri allows configure to
add to those compiler flags.
