The pro2cmake.py conversion script faithfully reproduced the .pro files
for the plugins, which specified the libraries as public. But in CMake,
the implications of this are that public usage requirements should then
be propagated to consumers. We don't expect any consumers, since a
plugin is created as a MODULE library in CMake, so for Windows we don't
even have an import library to link with. The only exception to this is
for static builds where plugins are created as STATIC libraries
instead, but only in certain controlled situations do we then link to
plugins. Even then, usage requirements are not expected to propagate to
the consumers, so these relationships should always be specified as
private.
