[Interest] Deploy custom binary with APK

[Alexander Dyagilev]

Hello,

I was using the following scheme:

1. Add it to assets.

mybinary.path=/assets

mybinary.files+=$$PWD/../mybinary-build/prebuilt/android/$$ANDROID_TARGET_ARCH/bin/mybinary

INSTALLS+=mybinary

2. At app first start, copy it to the cache folder and run it from there.

Since Android 10, this scheme is not working anymore 
(https://developer.android.com/about/versions/10/behavior-changes-10#execute-permission):

"/Untrusted apps that target Android 10 cannot invoke //|exec()|//on 
files within the app's home directory. This execution of files from the 
writable app home directory is a //W^X violation 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W%5EX>//. Apps should load only the 
binary code that's embedded within an app's APK file./"

So, is there a way to include it into APK so I can launch it from there? 
I'm using Qt 5.12.10.
