Major changes, but not enough to justify a 2.0 release.

Machine requirements:

  • armhf builds are no longer supplied
  • 32-bit x86 builds are no longer supplied

OS Requirements:

  • Windows 10 is now required
  • macOS 11 is now required
  • Linux requirements unchanged

Packaging changes:

  • All signed packages signed with new Raspberry Pi Ltd key
  • Linux now uses AppImages
  • All platform now use Qt6.7
  • Raspberry Pi OS gets a package that installs the AppImage
  • Dependencies that are not SSL are now fully vendored
  • Platform crypto libraries are now preferred (CNG on Windows, SecureTransport on macOS, GnuTLS on Linux)

With very little version data, these area hard to reason about.
Deviations from upstream xz-5.6.2 release are in the CMake
infrastructure, to try and make the library more consumable as a
vendored dependency.
Add a modified version of curl-8.8.0, where the modifications are
primarily centred around the CMake infrastructure to make the
library more consumable as a vendored dependency.
Relayout the OptionsPopup - introduce wider use of anchors
rather than calculated values, nest controls as is appropriate for
their rendering.

Additionally, right-align all the textfields, and make the uniform size,
offset the labels to indicate shared context, and numerous layout
simplifications.

Finally - make behaviours dependent on the value of a checkbox actually
depend on that checkbox - rather than some sort of 'enabled' flag on a
layout.
Use anchors preferentially, and nest the title bar elements.

The MinGW64 build of Qt6 renames 'main' to 'qMain' to ensure its runtime is executed first.

This unfortunately fouls anything else called 'main', so rename the symbol to 'run'.
You must manually specify your Qt6 install path.
Add an option for the MinGW64 root path.

This is used to find the supporting libraries for deployment on Windows.
The wlanapi_delayed library invocation adds complexity to the build, with a tenous advantage in terms of load time.

With the upgrade of Qt to Qt6, WindeployQt now has different arguments - so drop the ones that don't exist or do the right thing.
This was causing obvious confusion for users - misclicking outside of
the pop-up caused a dismissal where the consequences were not at all
clear.

So let's drop that behaviour entirely. You exit the dialog through
explicit button or key presses only.
This doesn't work - notarisation can take up to an hour.
These are primarily gated in the dependencies - and not of interest to our build flow.
Move some files around, so that AppImages can be packaged inside a .deb for convenience.
