Remove QtPositioning module from qtlocation.git6.2.46.2.36.2.26.2
Turns out that our CI does not support repos without any tests. This is treated like an error and leads to integration failure. This patch fixes it by disabling tests in coin/module_config.yaml. This config should be fixed when QtLocation tests are enabled Task-number: QTBUG-97084 Change-Id: Ib06e865fe2836806bbbee34345f06b471dd48660 Reviewed-by: Qt CI Bot <qt_ci_bot@qt-project.org> Reviewed-by: Alex Blasche <alexander.blasche@qt.io> (cherry picked from commit 23f32792ad53e23bbafbff6d7667f0bb0f69fc53)

-\title Positioning (QML)
-
-\brief The Location Positioning API enables location positioning by means of
-GPS or an NMEA data source.
-
-\section1 Location Positioning
-
-Location data involves a precisely specified position on the Earth's
-surface \unicode {0x2014} as provided by a latitude-longitude coordinate
-\unicode {0x2014} along with associated data, such as:
-
- \list
- \li The date and time at which the position was reported
- \li The velocity of the device that reported the position
- \li The altitude of the reported position (height above sea level)
- \li The bearing of the device in degrees, relative to true north
- \endlist
-
-For more information see
-\l {http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_coordinate}{Geographic Coordinate}.
-
-This data can be extracted through a variety of methods. One of the most
-well known methods of positioning is GPS (Global Positioning System), a
-publicly available system that uses radiowave signals received from
-Earth-orbiting satellites to calculate the precise position and time of
-the receiver. Another popular method is 'Cell Identifier Positioning', which uses
-the cell identifier of the cell site that is currently serving the receiving
-device to calculate its approximate location. These and other positioning
-methods can all be used with the Location API; the only requirement for a
-location data source within the API is that it provides a
-latitude-longitude coordinate with a date/time value, with the option of
-providing the other attributes listed above.
-
-\section2 Coordinates
-
-The \l {coordinate} is a basic unit of geographical information. The
-\l {coordinate} type has attributes to hold the \c {latitude},
-\c longitude and \c altitude.
-
-\section2 Positions
-
-The three dimensional position of an object such as a mobile device can be specified by giving
-the latitude, longitude and altitude. That is the values held in the
-\l {coordinate} type. Additionally for computation of future
-positions we would like to know if the object is moving, what \l [QML] {Position::}{speed} it is
-doing and what is the \l {Position::timestamp}{timestamp} of the last position data. Position
-therefore includes values for the \l {Position::coordinate}{coordinate},
-\l {Position::speed}{speed} and a \l {Position::timestamp}{timestamp}. \l Position also takes
-responsibility for validation of sensible values for these properties. These are exposed as
-the \l {Position::latitudeValid}{latitudeValid}, \l {Position::longitudeValid}{longitudeValid},
-\l {Position::altitudeValid}{altitudeValid}, \l {Position::speedValid}{speedValid},
-\l {Position::horizontalAccuracyValid}{horizontalAccuracyValid}, and
-\l {Position::verticalAccuracyValid}{verticalAccuracyValid} properties.
-
-
-\section2 PositionSource Type
-
-We have a \l Position type, a \l {coordinate} type but where does the data come
-from? Also it is a good idea to be able to indicate alternative sources.
-Perhaps instead of directly picking up GPS satellites it might be desirable to
-do some testing using a datafile.
-
-The \l PositionSource type provides the developer with control, within the
-limits allowed by the platform, of the source of the geographical data.
-\l PositionSource supports multiple plugins, including an
-\l {Qt Positioning NMEA plugin}{NMEA} plugin.
-
-\l {http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NMEA}{NMEA} is a common text-based
-protocol for specifying navigational data. The \l PositionSource
-\l {Qt Positioning NMEA plugin}{NMEA} plugin supports multiple data sources,
-including raw file or TCP socket. The source will emit updates according to the
-time stamp of each NMEA sentence to produce a "replay" of the recorded data.
-
-See the \l {Qt Positioning NMEA plugin}{plugin description} for usage examples.
-
-
-\section2 GeoFlickr Example
-
-The \l{GeoFlickr (QML)}{GeoFlickr Example} uses the \l PositionSource to
-download thumbnail images from Flickr relevant to the current location.
