- When waf is run with -v, and it runs a call to context.cmd_and_log() with an argument list,
argument[0] is a relative path, and a cwd **kwarg is passed so that the argument[0] resolves
correctly, then the call will crash saying the program could not be found. For example, the
caller may be wrapping calls using a nodejs environment like:
ctx.cmd_and_log("./node_modules/bin/webpack", cwd="webui")
and this will fail with "Program ./node_modules/.bin/webpack not found!"
if waf is run with -v. The user friendly check for usable programs still
stays in place for shell calls and absolute paths, but allows the caller
to use this pattern even when verbose mode is on. This same fix was
previously made for context.exec_command().

Implements support for Qt6 by extending qt5.py. The user can opt in for
Qt6 support by setting cfg.want_qt6 = True. There's also a qt6 feature,
which at the moment is identical to the qt5 feature. Splitting has been
done now for futureproofing purposes. Qt6 libraries can be selected
through the cfg.qt6_vars variable. I didn't make an attempt at any
backwards compatibility by trying to load cfg.qt5_vars if it exists,
this is done so the move from Qt5 to Qt6 is a more deliberate process.

Improves autodetection by adding tool naming as found in some recent
distributions (ie. Fedora). Adds also possibility to pass via env
command line options to tools (needed ie. to explicitly pass
generator due to changes to uic/rcc tool).
Test updated to demonstrate and document the parameter needed to
work out of the box with newest tooling.
