[Development] Qt 5 for Google Native Client

[morten.sorvig at nokia.com]

Qt 5 for NaCl is now roughly on par with the Qt 4 port and I would like to start the process of integrating it with the goal of  continuing development upstream in Qt 5. I probably won't have time to any further work until next year, but here's a heads up for those interested.

The Qt 5 patch is at: http://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,10675 General documentation is at: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/Qt_for_Google_Native_Client .

Current patch state:
- one big patch for core, gui, widgets, network
- configure script modifications.
- liberal use of "!nacl" in .pro files to disable code.
- a fair bit of Q_OS_NACL use.

Plan going forward:
- split the patch into platform plugin, core, gui, etc parts.
- less configure script modifications, rely on really long configure line instead.
- use config options to disable code instead of !nacl as far as possible.
- review each Q_OS_NACL ifdef in core and gui.
- verify that the NaCl modifications don't break other platforms
