Commit d0071a4f87 broke static top-level builds:
CMake Error at .../qtbase/lib/cmake/Qt6Gui/Qt6GuiPlugins.cmake:17 (set_property):
set_property can not be used on an ALIAS target.
Fixed by moving the un-aliasing of the target before the set_property
call.
Pick-to: 6.0

Projects may call find_package(Qt6 ...) multiple times. When enabling
examples and tests, this happens a lot. For a statically built Qt,
for modules that have plugins (e.g. Gui), every time the module's
config file was loaded, it was generating and adding another copy of
the import plugin sources to the module target. These accumulated and
created many duplicates, which in turn blew out generation time and
made the build very inefficient.
This change checks whether the import plugin sources have already been
processed for the module target and ensures they are only added once.
It records its status on the target itself so that both local and
global targets are supported.

This property is dynamically determined and set in the
Qt6${module-name}PluginsConfig.cmake files now.
There is no need anymore to export this property.

When doing a per-repository build of Qt, as it is done for the installer
packages, the build of qtbase has no knowledge of plugins that might be
built and installed from other repositories. That means we must not
write a fixed list of known plugins when exporting Qt modules of qtbase.
In particular, qtsvg adds imageformat plugins that are supposed to be
picked up by qtbase's QtGui module when linking a project against a
statically linked Qt.
${install-prefix}/lib/cmake/Qt6Gui/Qt6GuiPlugins.cmake missed the
include statements for qtsvg's plugin config files and operated on a
fixed list of plugins, all from qtbase.
Apart from that, the Qt6::Gui target's property QT_PLUGINS did only
contain the qtbase plugins.
This patch fixes the situation in the following way:
1. All Qt6*PluginConfig.cmake files in
${install-prefix}/lib/cmake/Qt6Gui are detected and included.
2. From those file names, the target names of the plugins are
deduced. This is safe as the file name of those generated files is a
direct result of the plugin's target name.
3. The QT_PLUGINS property of the module is updated with the detected
plugin target names.

Static Qt plugins should not be included in the list of libraries of
a prl file. They end up being there due to our circular dependency
trick where the plugins depend on the module they belong
to.
This in turn causes the giant static plugin generator expressions to
be processed in qt_collect_libs(), and the generated prl file ends up
having target names like Qt6::QJpegPlugin which are obviously not
linker flags.
To eliminate the static plugins from prl files, add an additional
dummy boolean generator expression '$<BOOL:QT_IS_PLUGIN_GENEX>'
that always evaluates to true. We can string match on this expression
in qt_collect_libs, and thus remove the whole static plugin genex
entry.
This should fix linking of apps with qmake that use a CMake-built
static Qt.

QtPlugins.cmake.in uses file(GENERATE) and target_sources() to
propagate the generated cpp files which contain plugin initialization
code to their consuming targets.
Unfortunately due to a bug in CMake, if the file is generated in a
different scope than the consuming target, the CMake generation
step will fail saying that the source file can not be found.
See https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues/18399 for details.
In the case of qtdeclarative, find_package(Qt6) is called at the top
level scope (this is when the file gets generated),
but the targets are created in subdirectory scopes, and the GENERATED
source file property is not propagated across scropes.
Circumvent the issue by instead using file(WRITE) and configure_file()
which create the file at configure time rather than generate time.
This will pollute the current binary directory with some more files,
but at least successfully fixes the build.

The build failed due to two different reasons.
We tried to assign properties on an aliased target, which does not
work. Make sure to set properties on the original unaliased target.
We tried to query for the value of the QT_DEFAULT_PLUGINS property
when automatically linking to plugins, but the generator expression
failed in the AND section, because querying for an unexisting value
does not return an integer, and the AND expression expects an integer.
The fix is to wrap the relevant expression in a BOOL generator
expression.

This is done by adding a DEFAULT_IF argument to add_qt_plugin, which accepts
if-evaluated expressions.
e.g.
add_qt_plugin(myplugin
DEFAULT_IF ${foo} STREQUAL ${bar}
...
)
so that this mechanism can be reused later if necessary.
