[Development] [Releasing] HEADS-UP: Qt 5.15 Feature Freeze is in effect now

It seems "feature freeze" != "API freeze" and the API review for 5.15
is still "to be done", so we still can raise the objection at the
right time for Qt 5.15.

The API consistency is one of the biggest advantages of Qt and I
really hope that we won't stop caring about it.
