GCC is unable to emit the SEH metadata about the stack aligning that is
required to execute AVX aligned instructions (VMOVDQA, VMOVAPS, etc.),
so it just doesn't align the stack. That causes crashes on a 50/50
chance every time the compiler attempts to address a stack-aligned
variable. In a debug-mode build, because it always loads & saves
everything on the stack, the chance of a crash happening is a near
certainty.
So we hack around it by going behind the compiler's back and instructing
the assembler to emit the unaligned counterparts of the instructions
every time the compiler wished to emit the aligned one. There's no
performance penalty: if the variable is actually aligned, the unaligned
instruction executes in the exact same time.

Needed for subsequent change that will check and error out if the
version is lower than 3.16. We do that to ensure all policies
introduced by CMake up to version 3.16 have their behavior set to
NEW.

Remove the qmake project files for most of Qt.
Leave the qmake project files for examples, because we still test those
in the CI to ensure qmake does not regress.
Also leave the qmake project files for utils and other minor parts that
lack CMake project files.

The Intel whitepaer[1] recommends using the RDSEED over RDRAND whenever
present. libstdc++ from GCC 10 will also use it in std::random_device.
[ChangeLog][QtCore][QRandomGenerator] The system() random generator will
now use the RDSEED instruction on x86 processors whenever available as
the first source of random data. It will fall back to RDRAND and then to
the system functions, in that order.

In qmake there are at least 2 things to know regarding
sub-architectures and instruction sets.
Which instruction sets does the compiler know to compile for,
represented by the various config.tests and features in
qtbase/configure.json.
And which instructions sets are enabled by the compiler by default,
represented by the configure.json "architecture" test and accessed
via QT_CPU_FEATURES.$$arch qmake argument.
Before this patch there was some mishandling of the above concepts
in CMake code.
The former can now be checked in CMake with via TEST_subarch_foo and
QT_FEATURE_foo (where foo is sse2, etc).
The latter can now be checked by
TEST_arch_${TEST_architecture_arch}_subarch_foo
(where foo is sse2, etc and the main arch is dynamyicall evaluated).
The configurejson2cmake script was adjusted to take care of the above
changes, and the cmake files were regenerated as well.

GCC for 64-bit Windows has a bug that it fails to properly re-align the
stack pointer for use with 256-bit memory addresses (AVX). Therefore,
there's about a 50/50 chance that any function using AVX will have an
improperly-aligned stack. In release mode, stack accesses should be
rare, but in debug mode they happen frequently. Either way, this is a
ticking time bomb, so we disable.
Clang is not affected.
32-bit MinGW is not affected.
64-bit in other OSes with GCC are not affected.

This has two main benefits:
1) introduces a qmake CONFIG we can use in .pro/.pri/.prf files
2) removes the need to keep an up-to-date list of which compilers
support the feature
The test is implemented as trying to compile every single SIMD test we
currently have, but without passing the -mXXX option. The reason for
trying all of them is that some people may have modified their mkspecs
to add -mXXX options or -march=XXX, which could enable the particular
feature we tried, resulting in a false positive outcome.
