The series supports qmake for qt6.

As stated in https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qt6-buildsystem.html:

  "This only affects users that want to build Qt from sources.
   You can still use qmake as a build tool for your applications."

This series revives an older patch that exported qmake for Qt6,
applying a minimal fix. It extends pkg-qmake to support Qt6 and uses
qwt as a test case to validate the changes.

The series is marked as RFC because hardcoding the Qt5 and Qt6 version
numbers in pkg-qmake is not ideal, even if the Qt5 versions were
already hardcoded.

An alternative approach could be to add a BR2_PACKAGE_QT{5,6}_VERSION_VALUE
option, but this can be discussed during review.

Dario Binacchi (3):
  package/qwt: bump to version 6.3.0
  package/pkg-qmake: support Qt6
  package/qwt: enable build with Qt6

Jesse Van Gavere (1):
  package/qt6: Add qmake functionality
