33cf9d32da Long live QPermissions!
Many features of today's devices and operating systems can have
significant privacy, security, and performance implications if
misused. It's therefore increasingly common for platforms to
require explicit consent from the user before accessing these
features.

The Qt permission APIs allow the application to check or request
permission for such features in a cross platform manner.

The check is always synchronous, and can be used in both
library and application code, from any thread.

The request is asynchronous, and should be initiated from
application code on the main thread. The result of the request
can be delivered to lambdas, standalone functions, or
regular member functions such as slots, with an optional
context parameter to manage the lifetime of the request.

Individual permissions are distinct types, not enum values,
and can be added and extended at a later point.
