First of all cmake and qmake used a different standard.
Secondly, the qmake logic enforced lvl 23 (if it was installed which
is the case on the failing machine). When this is combined with
f71a400bf6 which requires lvl 28 API to build, the android build fails to compile.
cmake logic was even worse as it enforced lvl 21 API to be used if installed.
This change requires pick to 5.15 as f71a400bf6 was picked as well.
Pick-to: 5.15

With the current distribution, this is 90% of active devices, and
it was released in 2014. Qt 5.12 is LTS and will continue to support
older Android versions for a long time to come.
This is to reduce the testing needed on outdated platforms and
allow ourselves to use some newer APIs unconditionally in Qt.
Android 21 was chosen because it is the minimum version that supports
64 bit builds.
[ChangeLog][Android] Increased the minimum supported Android version
to Android 5.0 (API level 21).

To allow reusing the logic which detects the appropriate
Android SDK version to use for building the Java code,
this is now separated into its own .prf file. This is
required by Qt Purchasing to avoid duplicating the logic
there.
