It doesn't have to be outside the application, qt.conf can be embedded
in the application (i. the resources file).

I'm not sure about the location, what I use for location is qt/etc/ (but
perhaps alongside works, I can't remember what the documentation says).

I haven't used the qt.conf for this because I already had this on the
application's manifest (which is also embedded into the app), a section
like this:

<asmv3:application>
    <asmv3:windowsSettings
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2005/WindowsSettings">
      <dpiAware>true</dpiAware>
    </asmv3:windowsSettings>
</asmv3:application>
