[Development] QtCloudMessaging repository request to Qt

[Ari Salmi]

Hi Jesús,

Thanks for question and reaction!

Qt Cloud Messaging API itself is not dependent on QtNetworkAuth, but it can
be backend-solution dependent.

e.g:
Google firebase backend solution for Android and iOS are using firebase's
c++ binaries (which app developer should give env, path when compiling) and
real communication goes through those elements.

Also in addition developer can create the cloud messaging server elements
also with this same API, so I've included REST API interfaces (QtNetwork)
to firebase and to  Kaltiot.com backends. Those needs (after Qt5.6) libssl
and libcrypto libraries included in to the applications (included in the
example).

Thanks,
Ari
