If certain 3rd party libraries have a version that's not suitable for
Qt, the configure summary should say so, rather than use them and fail
at build time.
With the current situation, we have to duplicate the version
information from the configure.json files in helper.py, by assigning
the version number as an extra find_package variable.
Rerunning configurejson2cmake then embeds this version info into the
qt_find_package calls in configure.cmake.
Some of the Find modules are rewritten to take the specified version
into account when looking for the libraries.
This involves moving around the code for creating a target, after
calling find_package_handle_standard_args() so we know if a good
enough version was found.

A few things are needed to accomplish that:
- the python scripts do not ignore certain system_foo features anymore
(it is a hardcoded list for now just to be safe)
- configurejson2cmake now outputs
qt_find_package(WrapSystemFoo) calls for bundled libraries
(see below)
- the harfbuzz .pro file is modified to accommodate pro2cmake
not being able to correctly parse some conditional scopes
- the freetype .pro file is modified to make sure linking of the
library succeeds without duplicate symbol errors, which qmake
doesn't encounter due to magical exclusion of cpp files that are
included in other cpp files (presumably for include moc_foo.cpp
support)
- feature evaluation for Core, Gui, Network now happens in the
qtbase/src directory, so that bundled libraries can be conditionally
built
- for each bundled library there are now two FindWrap scripts:
- FindWrapSystemFoo which finds an installed library in the system
- FindWrapFoo which either uses the system installed library or
the built bundled one depending on a condition
- projects that intend to use bundled libraries need to link against
WrapFoo::WrapFoo instead of WrapSystemFoo::WrapSystemFoo targets
(this is handled by pro2cmake).
Unfortunately manually added qt_find_package(WrapFoo) calls might
still be needed as is the case for WrapFreetype and others.
- a new cmake/QtFindWrapHelper.cmake file is added that provides
a macro to simplify creation of WrapFoo targets that link against
a bundled or system library. The implementation is fairly ugly
due to CMake macro constraints, but it was deemed better than
copy-pasting a bunch of almost identical code across all
FindWrapFoo.cmake files.
- a qtzlib header-only module is now created when using bundled
zlib, to provide public syncqt created headers for consumers
that need them. These are projects that have
'QT_PRIVATE += zlib-private' in their .pro files
(e.g. qtimageformats, qtlocation, qt3d, etc.)
This is unfortunately needed due to QtNetwork using zlib
types in its private C++ API.
The change includes support for building the following bundled
libraries:
- zlib
- libpng
- libjpeg
- Freetype
- Harfbuzz-ng
- PCRE2
The following 3rd party libraries are still using an old
implementation within the CMake build system, and should be migrated
to the new one in the near future:
- double-conversion
- Old harfbuzz
The are a few libraries that are not yet ported:
- system-sqlite
- systemxcb
- maybe others
Among other things, this change allows building qtbase on Windows
without requiring vcpkg.
