The Information Property List (Info.plist) is a property list that
contains information about macOS and iOS application and framework
bundles. There are multiple supported formats, those property lists can
be stored in, most notably XML and binary.
Problem
If the Info.plist file is edited with an external editor, such as Xcode,
it is possible that it is stored in binary format. A Makefile generated
by the qmake tool contains a call to sed, which works on text but not
binary files. Consequently, this call would fail.
Solution
Since Mac OS X 10.2, the plutil tool is available. It can be used to
convert the property lists into a specific format. The plutil tool is
now used to convert the plist to XML, so that the sed invocation
succeeds.
[ChangeLog][qmake] Fixed handling binary Info.plist files in generated
Makefiles by always converting them to XML before substituting
placeholders.

We've been requiring C++17 since Qt 6.0, and our qAsConst use finally
starts to bother us (QTBUG-99313), so time to port away from it
now.
Since qAsConst has exactly the same semantics as std::as_const (down
to rvalue treatment, constexpr'ness and noexcept'ness), there's really
nothing more to it than a global search-and-replace, with manual
unstaging of the actual definition and documentation in dist/,
src/corelib/doc/ and src/corelib/global/.

syncqt.pl adds an extra dependency on perl when building Qt. Modern C++
provides the convenient cross-platform way to access a filesystem and
to use regular expressions, so we may replace the perl script with C++
application. The syncqt executable is built at configure time and
installed as QtCore tool. It's running at configure time to deliver the
required header files for IDE to build a consistent code model and at
the build time to keep tracking changes in header files and generate
the missing aliases without reconfiguring. 'syncqt' only parses header
files from a CMake build tree, so the resulting Qt installation only
contains interfacing headers that belong to the platform that Qt is
built for. 'sync.profile' files are not used as the 'source of truth'
for sync qt procedure anymore, all the necessary information is taken
from either CMake files at configure time or from the module header
files while parsing them.
syncqt.pl is still in place since it's required as fallback solution
for a smooth transition to the new syncqt implementation for all qt
repositories.
This patchset only enables the C++ based syncqt for 'qtbase'
repository.
From the performance perspective C++ version works faster then perl
script, also the configure time is reduced significally on subsequent
reconfigurations - up x2 times faster when re-configuring repository,
but it also takes time to compile the tool itself the first time.
Numbers for qtbase:
syncqt.pl syncqt.cpp
initial: 0m16,035s 0m20,413s
reconfig: 0m6,819s 0m3,725s
The syncing procedure can be run separately for each module using
<ModuleName>_sync_headers targets. The 'sync_headers' target can be
used to sync all the modules at once.

Linker response files for the MinGW and Unix makefile generators are
controlled by the variable QMAKE_LINK_OBJECT_MAX. This variable holds a
number. If the number of object files passed to the linker exceeds this
number, a linker response file containing object file paths is created.
This heuristic is extremely imprecise. It doesn't take into account the
length of object file names nor the length of $$OBJECTS_DIR.
Also, when using a static Qt, a big part of the linker command line are
libraries. A relatively small example can fail to link with "The
command line is too long" on Windows, even with the object files being
in a response file.
The MinGW makefile generator already reads the variable
QMAKE_RESPONSEFILE_THRESHOLD for compiler response files. Re-use this
variable for the linker response file of the Unix and MinGW makefile
generators.
If QMAKE_RESPONSEFILE_THRESHOLD is set, use it to determine whether to
create a response file. QMAKE_LINK_OBJECT_MAX is then ignored. The
response file contains objects and libraries.
If QMAKE_RESPONSEFILE_THRESHOLD is not set, use QMAKE_LINK_OBJECT_MAX to
determine whether to create a response file. The response file contains
only object files.
QMAKE_LINK_OBJECT_SCRIPT is used in both cases to specify a common base
name of all linker response files.
