Qt6Config.cmake calls cmake_minimum_required to ensure a recent enough
CMake version is used in projects.
That call does not set policies in the calling subdirectory scope,
because find_package introduces a new policy scope.
If a project using Qt has a 'cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.1)'
call and is configured with a recent CMake, many policies will
still be set to OLD.
One such policy is CMP0071 (Run AUTOMOC on GENERATED files). The
policy value is queried at generation time rather than at target
definition time, which means we can't influence the policy value
(e.g. inside the implementation of qt_add_executable for example)
The inability to influence the policy value for targets created by our
own CMake functions is unfortunate and can lead to issues (in the case
of the above policy to compilation / linker issues).
Record the version of the last cmake_minimum_required call before
the Qt packages are found and error out if the version is lower than
the minimum supported one.
A project can reduce the error into a warning by specifying a
-DQT_FORCE_MIN_CMAKE_VERSION_FOR_USING_QT_IN_CMAKE_MIN_REQUIRED=3.xyz
option when configuring the project.
If the option is used and build issues arise, no official support is
given.
All the CMake example projects shipped with Qt specify a minimum
version of 3.16 already (which is the minimum for shared Qt builds),
so it shouldn't be an issue to require that in other user projects as
well.
Implementation wise, we follow the existing pattern to record
what the minimum and computed versions for static and shared Qt
builds are at qtbase configure time.
These are then checked before the Qt6 or QtFoo packages are
find_package'd.
