configure: Introduce -submodules option
The option is used to specify a list of Qt repos (git submodules)
that should be included in the configuration of a top-level Qt build.
The option takes a comma-separated list of qt submodule names e.g.
'qtbase,qtsvg,qtdeclarative'
It can also take a single value like 'qtbase' or 'qtquick3d'.
Each specified submodule and all of its transitive dependencies will
be included when configuring the top-level Qt build (assuming that the
submodules have previously been already checked out).
Any missing submodules or dependencies will not be automatically
checked out, but rather skipped. This can result in a failed
configuration if a required submodule is missing.
If some optional transitive submodule dependency is not desired in the
build, you can combine the -submodules option together with -skip
options.
E.g. configuring with
-submodules qtdoc,qtnetworkauth -skip qtmultimedia,qtimageformats
will result in a top-level build with the following submodules:
- qtbase (common dependency)
- qttools (dependency of qtdoc)
- qtactiveqt dependency of qttools)
- qshadertools (dependency of qtdeclarative)
- qtdeclarative (explicit)
- qtnetworkauth (explicit)
- qtdoc (explicit)
