jolavillette f75315b0ff build(cmake): make retroshare-gui Qt detection version-agnostic (Qt5/Qt6)
Replace the hardcoded find_package(Qt5 ...) / Qt5:: links with the standard
QT NAMES Qt6 Qt5 pattern driven by ${QT_VERSION_MAJOR}, so the same tree builds
against both Qt5 and Qt6. On Qt6 add Core5Compat (for QRegExp et al.) and skip
QtX11Extras (idle_platform.cpp already uses QNativeInterface there; X11/Xss are
linked directly). Drop the dead 'if(NOT Qt6_FOUND) qt5_wrap_ui' double-wrap and
keep a single versionless qt_wrap_ui call.

The C++ sources are already Qt6-guarded upstream; this only wires Qt6 into the
CMake build. VOIP/FeedReader plugins are out of scope (still Qt5-only).
