The API is available by including qopenglcontext.h as usual,
but scoped in the QPlatformInterface namespace. The namespace
exposes platform specific type-safe interfaces that provide:
a) Factory functions for adopting native contexts, e.g.
QCocoaGLContext::fromNative(nsContext, shareContext);
b) Access to underlying native handles, e.g.
openGLContext->platformInterface<QCocoaGLContext>->nativeContext()
c) Platform specific functionality, e.g.
static QWGLContext::openGLModuleHandle()
openGLContext->platformInterface<QEGLContext>->doSomething();
The platform interfaces live close to the classes they extend,
removing the need for complex indirection and plumbing, and
avoids kitchen-sink modules and APIs such as the extras modules,
QPlatformFunctions, or QPlatformNativeInterface.
In the case of QOpenGLContext these platform APIs are backed
by the platform plugin, so dynamic_cast is used to ensure the
platform plugin supports the requested interface, but this is
and implementation detail. The interface APIs are agnostic
to where the implementation lives, while still being available
to the user as part of the APIs they extend/augment.
The documentation will be restored when the dust settles.

Change QOpenGLTextureBlitter to be a public API, as it was originally intended.
There are now significant external uses outside qtbase (C++ compositor examples
in QtWayland), and the API is considered proven enough.
[ChangeLog][QtGui] QOpenGLTextureBlitter, a utility class to draw textured quads,
has been made public.

(in those files which will be under GPL 3 with exceptions)

Qt copyrights are now in The Qt Company, so we could update the source
code headers accordingly. In the same go we should also fix the links to
point to qt.io.
Outdated header.LGPL removed (use header.LGPL21 instead)
Old header.LGPL3 renamed to header.LGPL3-COMM to match actual licensing
combination. New header.LGPL-COMM taken in the use file which were
using old header.LGPL3 (src/plugins/platforms/android/extract.cpp)
Added new header.LGPL3 containing Commercial + LGPLv3 + GPLv2 license
combination

Add also a manual test application. For GLX there is an autotest since
that is likely to be run on one of the CIs. For EGL and especially
eglfs this is likely not the case so a manual test is better.
