[Development] syncqt.pl in C++

[Corentin]

JSC is pretty slow to build compared to V4. I think It's an inconvenient.
And it would negate the efforts to get rid out of QtScript/JSC in Qt.
It may be wishful thinking, but it would be great if QBS and Qml could use
the exact same engine that would only be build once.
