These are user-facing, equivalent as defined by you to their Qt 5 version:
lconvert
lrelease
lupdate
qdoc (I assume that its output is usable by Qt 5)
qmleasing
These are user-facing, not equivalent to their Qt 5 version - or there
are no Qt 5 versions:
androiddeployqt
qt-cmake
qt-cmake-standalone-test
qt-configure-module
qml
qmlscene
qmllint
qmlls
qmlpreview
qmlprofiler
qmlformat
qmltime
These are not user-facing and should not be in bin:
qt-cmake-private
qt-cmake-private-install.cmake (not even a tool)
androidtestrunner
qmltestrunner
These seem user-facing, but I cannot answer question 2:
balsam
balsamui
instancer
materialeditor
shapegen
qsb
shadergen
qtplugininfo
To be clarified:
meshdebug
qdistancefieldgenerator
qmldom
qmljs
qmlplugindump
qmltc
