This is what we promote also in the documentation.

CMakeLists.txt and .cmake files of significant size
(more than 2 lines according to our check in tst_license.pl)
now have the copyright and license header.
Existing copyright statements remain intact

Examples are intended to show how to build against an installed Qt.
Building them as part of the main build means the way the Qt targets
are defined and created are not representative of an end user's build.
By building them as separate projects using ExternalProject, we can
more closely replicate the intended audience's environment. This
should allow us to catch more problems earlier.
Having examples built as part of the main build also creates problems
with some static builds where a tool built by the main build is needed
during configure time. This happens with other repos like qtdeclarative
but not (currently) with qtbase. Converting the examples in qtbase to
be built using ExternalProject is intended as a demonstrator for how
other repos can do similar. Until other repos are converted, they will
continue to work as they did before, with examples as part of the main
build for non-static builds only.
The new build-externally behavior is only supported for non-prefix
builds with this change. Prefix builds will continue to use the old
non-external method. Support for building examples externally in
prefix builds will be a separate change.

Added qt_examples_begin() and qt_examples_end() macros to setup the
example list so it can be re-used in other projects.
When cross-compiling, we also need to set
CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PACKAGE to BOTH in order for find_package()
to work correctly.
Removed support for building the whole qtbase/examples folder as a
standalone project. Building examples is only supported when building
the whole of qtbase (qtbase + examples together) or each individual
example is built separately against an installed Qt version.

Create CMake config files which can be used from the very same CMake
project. These CMake config files simply do not create any targets,
controlled via the QT_NO_CREATE_TARGETS.
This patch also allows to build qtbase.git:examples as a standalone
project, against an already-built Qt.
Ran this:
ag -s "QT " examples -l -0 | xargs -0 -n 1 .../util/cmake/pro2cmake.py --is-example
