    CMake: rework for Qt6 support · a75542ad
    Kyle Kienapfel authored
    This PR rearranges things in the CMake system to make compiling with Qt6 possible
    
    1. Camera API has changed in Qt6, so the camera feature is disabled
    2. A previous fix involving QLocale is now version gated.
    3. QRegExp replaced with QRegularExpression, see #5343
    4. Qt6_LOCATION option added to specify a location to search for Qt6
      (see examples below)
    5. windeployqt is used to copy Qt6 files into the build directory on Windows
    
    Notes for Arch Linux
    Arch install happened to have qt6-base qt6-declarative qt6-translations installed
    
    mkdir build && cd build
    cmake .. -GNinja -DYUZU_USE_BUNDLED_VCPKG=ON -DYUZU_TESTS=OFF -DENABLE_QT6=YES -DYUZU_USE_BUNDLED_QT=NO
    
    Windows (MSVC)
    Qt wants users to download precompiled libraries via an online installer,
    it is worth noting that the GPL/LGPL takes precendence over any ...
    
    In the Qt Maintenance tool, under a version, such as 6.3.1
    Select "MSVC 2019 64-bit"
    Under Additional Libraries Qt Multimedia may be of use for Camera support
    
    For the Web Applet I had to select the following:
    PDF Positioning WebChannel WebEngine
    
    mkdir build && cd build
    cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -DQt6_LOCATION=C:/Qt/6.4.0/msvc2019_64/ \
    -DENABLE_COMPATIBILITY_LIST_DOWNLOAD=YES -DYUZU_USE_BUNDLED_QT=NO \
    -DENABLE_QT_TRANSLATION=YES -DENABLE_QT6=YES ..
