If Vulkan headers are present on the system when qtbase is configured,
QtGui and QtOpenGL should be compiled with Vulkan support.
If a user project uses a Qt built with Vulkan support, but their system
is missing Vulkan headers, the project configuration needs to succeed.
The project will get compilation errors if it uses Vulkan headers, but
that's intended.
This use case was broken when fixing Vulkan to be found when building
Qt for Android.
Fix the regression with a combination of things
1) Mark the WrapVulkanHeaders package as optional (already the case)
2) Use the include directories directly when compiling Gui and OpenGL
3) Propagate WrapVulkanHeaders::WrapVulkanHeaders link requirement to
consumers only if the target exists. It won't exist if Vulkan
include dirs are not found
This also requires some changes in pri and prl file generation.
For prl file generation, we don't want to link to the
WrapVulkanHeaders target, so we filter out all dependencies that
use TARGET_NAME_IF_EXISTS for anything that calls
__qt_internal_walk_libs which includes qt_collect_libs.
For pri files, we make sure to generate a uses=vulkan/nolink clause
by inspecting a new _qt_is_nolink_target property on the target.
We also don't add include dirs to the pri file if the new
_qt_skip_include_dir_for_pri property is set.
This is intended for Vulkan, because there is separate qmake logic to
try and find the include dirs when configuring a user project.
As a drive-by, fix nolink handling for WrapOpenSSLHeaders.

Use the same approach we use for iOS, which is to set multiple
CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES values and let the clang front end
deal with lipo-ing the final libraries.
For now, Qt can be configured to build universal macOS libraries by
passing 2 architectures to CMake, either via:
-DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="x86_64;arm64"
or
-DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="arm64;x86_64"
Currently we recommend specifying the intel x86_64 arch as the first
one, to get an intel slice configuration that is comparable to a
non-universal intel build.
Specifying the arm64 slice first could pessimize optimizations and
reduce the feature set for the intel slice due to the limitation
that we run configure tests only once.
The first specified architecture is the one used to do all the
configure tests.
It 'mostly' defines the common feature set of both architecture
slices, with the excepion of some special handling for sse2 and
neon instructions.
In the future we might want to run at least the Qt architecture config
test for all specified architectures, so that we can extract all the
supported sub-arches and instruction sets in a reliable way.
For now, we use the same sse2 hack as for iOS simulator_and_device
builds, otherwise QtGui fails to link due to missing
qt_memfill32_sse2 and other symbols.
The hack is somewhat augmented to ensure that reconfiguration
still succeeds (same issue happened with iOS). Previously the sse2
feature condition was broken due to force setting the feature
to be ON. Now the condition also checks for a special
QT_FORCE_FEATURE_sse2 variable which we set internally.
Note that we shouldn't build for arm64e, because the binaries
get killed when running on AS with the following message:
kernel: exec_mach_imgact: not running binary built against
preview arm64e ABI.
Aslo, by default, we disable the arm64 slice for qt sql plugins,
mostly because the CI provisioned sql libraries that we depend on only
contain x86_64 slices, and trying to build the sql plugins for both
slices will fail with linker errors.
This behavior can be disabled for all targets marked by
qt_internal_force_macos_intel_arch, by setting the
QT_FORCE_MACOS_ALL_ARCHES CMake option to ON.
To disble it per-target one can set
QT_FORCE_MACOS_ALL_ARCHES_${target} to ON.
