This script is very specifically converting .pro-files from the Qt 5
qmake build infrastructure and produces CMakeLists.txt files that work
in the context of the Qt 6 cmake build system.

You might be able to salvage some parts when you want to convert from
another source context, but turning this script into something that
accepts arbitrary .pro-files and produces generic CMakeLists.txt files
is going to be a *lot* of extra work. Making it produce qbs instead of
cmake would probably be easy compared to that:-)

Best Regards,
Tobias
