Provide latest qbs alongside qmake

I have to check how that could fit.
I think it might be a nice to have but I think it is problematic at least for some qt versions. Qbs was announced to deprecate by the end of 2019. See https://www.qt.io/blog/2018/10/29/deprecation-of-qbs . I also never did anything with it, so I have to evaluate this suggestion

Appreciate the response. I know that it is deprecated. But I think the management at the Qt Company is stupid to make such a decision. Reading the comments can shine some light on many use cases.

I myself use Qbs for a complex ERP application. It would take a day to get used to but once you do, there is no going back.

Since the announcement of that decision, I have started to maintain a qmake build config for the same application. Now I am maintaining qmake project files in addition to qbs files just to be on the safe side.

I configure in qbs first and it would naturally flow, take less time and has clean qml syntax. Then I painstakingly rewrite it in qmake. But I hope qbs survives. There are already qbs binaries available from kde neon user repos.

I open this for hacktoberfest, since I have no time to look into it myself. Maybe someone wants to work on it.
