As of today, GitHub no longer allows the 'git://' protocol, so we need to
switch the submodule and our other references to cloning git repos to
'https://' instead.

Android and iOS use qmake, so add the code to the .pro file.
This also removes all remnants of QCharts includes and uses and all the
references to QCharts in our various build systems.
That was a brief but extremely useful detour.

This appears to be needed only for Android with Qt 5.15. Which means
that this commit creates odd breakage in case someone were to try to
build for Android with an older Qt version - but given that the current
build process only works with Qt 5.14 or 5.15, I think this is an
acceptable flaw.

Doing it this way using the cmake build system at least gets us to the point

Several features that are needed to create Android bundles with the
current NDK and QT 5.15 aren't easily available when using cmake. Given
that we already do a qmake based build for iOS, I decided to simply
switch Android to that as well.
An added complication is that some of the magic that qmake uses to do
the right things fails if the .pro file isn't in the root directory of
your project. So this is right now somewhat inconsistent with the way we
build for iOS. Something that should get cleaned up in the near future
as it makes no sense to maintain two separate .pro files.
This commits also adds a new build shell script to drive the assembly of
all the dependencies. Once again this is a new file with the old one
left in place for now (but to be removed fairly soon).

This file is copied from the QBS project. It's under LGPL and therefore
compatible with our licensing. While it would be possible to retrieve
this file at build time from the original project, for now it seemed
easier to include it in our repo.

This is no longer created using GitHub actions (but all the necessary
information is still included in this repo). We need to be able to
shrink this container so our GitHub Action runs don't run out of disk
space.
Adjust the path where the resulting binaries are found with this build.

We no longer use libusb to access USB devices on Android, therefore
there's no point including libusb in our build. Also, we have never even
attempted to run the tests on Android, so let's not even pretend to

If we install our support libraries into the NDK we later run into
include path order issues that result in strange errors around the
inclusion of math.h (because we find the C version of that include
file that ships with the NDK before we find the libstdc++ version
of math.h (because the include path for our support libraries is
listed before the libstdc++ include search path). By having a distinct
install-root for our libraries we can avoid this problem.
Remove the previous hack that tried to work around the symptoms of
this issue.

The official installer now requires the user to log in which we can't
really do in a scripted manner. Let's see how long this way of
installing things will be available.
While doing this remove an ancient hack of some Qt settings that we no
longer need.
This also tries to prune some things that we don't need in the Docker
image to reduce image size.
The mapbox plugin is removed as it would add a dependency to QtSql which
we otherwise don't need. And since the plugin isn't used, no point in
installing it.

Qt 5.13.2 fixes a few bugs.
We are NOT switching to Qt 5.14 as that breaks a ton of things with
Android support. At this point even with qmake it near impossible to get
working Android binaries, no one appears to have a solution for cmake.
With qt-android-cmake current master fixes the problem that held us back
at the earlier commit, so let's go back to using master.

This is squashed commit consisting of a number of subjects, all intended
to get our app to build, link and run on device, but as the steps are
small (but non-trivial), I document them in this one commit.
1) Do not use OpenSSLs install targets, but simply copy the wanted build
artifacts manually. The main reason for this, is that the install
targets want to install a lot more than we build, so it also builds
parts of the OpenSSL suite that we will never use.
2) As Android does not like shared libraries with embedded versioning
(and the used androiddeployqt actively prevents adding versioned
libraries to the build), strip all this data from the generated shared
libraries. This trick was already there, but its adapted to all possible
conflicts.
3) The OpenSSL config script seems rather broken, resulted in failed
builds, and calling the underlying Configure is simpler.
4) Finally, parts of the OpenSSL code uses stdio things like stdout,
stderr, etc. These showed up as undeclared external on build time. Well,
luckily, there was an easy way out using 2 -D(efines). This feels hacky,
but does the job (and we are not interested in the output of OpenSSL in
our app).

The main reason for upgrading of the Qt version is the hunt for a broken
BT/BLE stack, preventing downloads from BT/BLE enabled DCs, in relation
to arm64 architecture builds. (And the absolute need for an arm64 build
in relation to the publication of the Android app in Googles Play
store).
In addition, Qt 5.12.4 starts supporting OpenSSL 1.1.1c, and trying to
use our current OpenSSL 1.0 series is highly discouraged by Qt (and
OpenSSL itself).
So, upgrade both in unison. But ... be careful bisecting issues on this
commit, as it does break our build. That will be fixed in the next
commit.
This fixes the BT/BLE download for arm64!
