CMake: Bail when configuring multiple configurations and plain Ninja
Previously configuration would not error out if you configured Qt with -DCMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES=RelWithDebInfo;Debug -GNinja instead you would get an error like CMake Error at cmake/QtBaseConfigureTests.cmake:51 (message): Failed to find compiled architecture detection executable at qtbase/build/config.tests/arch/RelWithDebInfo/architecture_test.exe Note that Qt code tries to find the arch test in a RelWithDebInfo directory but due to using single-config Ninja, CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES is ignored, and the executable is placed in a non-config specific folder. Error out early in such a case, and mention that for multi-config builds, the Ninja Multi-Config generator should be used. Pick-to: 6.4 Change-Id: I0192185123be563671cbe154f968a03b7458e327 Reviewed-by: Alexey Edelev <alexey.edelev@qt.io>
