Note that we will require source code changes due to the way NS records 
operate. 

I've uploaded https://codereview.qt-project.org/106693 for Qt 5.4 and this 
change will have to make its way to 5.5 and dev before those other branches 
get unblocked too. If we do that by normal, merge means, we can expect at 
minimum 4 days until all branches get unblocked, due to problems in merging.

Therefore, as soon as it integrates in 5.4 showing that it works, I propose we 
cherry-pick -x it to 5.5 and dev so we get unblocked faster. 

I'm assuming we won't need more 5.4.1 integrations -- if we do, then this 
change needs to go into that branch too.

For good measure, we should consider cherry-picking to 5.3 too but bypass the 
CI.

We should also consider postponing the end of the 5.5-dev soft-merge period 
and the release of the alpha.
