Craig Scott 1c4ba17015 Refactor and update qml CMake API
The existing CMake API for qml modules had a number of
shortcomings. Refactor it to achieve the following:

- Clearly separate public and internal aspects.
- Re-use code from qtbase for adding plugins and module
  targets rather than reimplementing close variations.
- Provide more robust and complete support for qmllint,
  qmlcachegen and automatic generation of qmldir files.
- Reduce the steps needed for more common scenarios.
- Encourage the use of separate backing library and plugin
  targets.
- Automatically generate the plugin class .cpp file where
  possible.
- Specify .qml files directly through qml-specific API
  elements rather than assuming they can be extracted
  out of a set of resources.

[ChangeLog][QtQml] The qml CMake API has changed from 6.1
and is now out of Technical Preview status. The most
notable change is that .qml files should no longer be
specified as resources, there is dedicated handling for
them in the qt6_add_qml_module(). A related change is
that the qt6_target_qml_files() command has been replaced
by qt6_target_qml_sources(). More complete integration
with qmlcachegen, qmllint and qmldir generation is also
part of the CMake API.

README

The Qt Quick module provides the basic elements to specify and implement your
user interface declaratively, using the Qt Meta-Object Language (QML). The
Qt QML module provides the engine and language infrastructure for QML itself.
This language is very expressive and human readable, and can be used by
designers to actually implement their UI vision. QML UIs can integrate
with C++ code in many ways, including being loaded as a part of a C++ UI
and loading data models from C++ and interacting with them.

Mostof these examples can be viewed directly with the
QML viewer utility, without requiring compilation.

Documentation for these examples can be found via the Examples
link in the main Qt documentation.
