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.

In qmake there are at least 2 things to know regarding
sub-architectures and instruction sets.
Which instruction sets does the compiler know to compile for,
represented by the various config.tests and features in
qtbase/configure.json.
And which instructions sets are enabled by the compiler by default,
represented by the configure.json "architecture" test and accessed
via QT_CPU_FEATURES.$$arch qmake argument.
Before this patch there was some mishandling of the above concepts
in CMake code.
The former can now be checked in CMake with via TEST_subarch_foo and
QT_FEATURE_foo (where foo is sse2, etc).
The latter can now be checked by
TEST_arch_${TEST_architecture_arch}_subarch_foo
(where foo is sse2, etc and the main arch is dynamyicall evaluated).
The configurejson2cmake script was adjusted to take care of the above
changes, and the cmake files were regenerated as well.

The new files represent the json features more closely.
This helps with various build issues as well, like dynamicgl
feature not being present before.
