Add configure option to minimize xcb runtime dependencies
Some of the xcb- libraries we depend upon are not (yet) common across distributions. This is problematic for binaries that should be working on different distributions. The patch mitigates this by: Adding the files from libxcb-proto (version 0.1.6), compiled with libxcb-1.5 xcb-util (version 0.3.9) xcb-util-image (version 0.3.9) xcb-util-keysyms (version 0.3.9) xcb-util-renderutil (version 0.3.8) xcb-util-wm (version 0.3.9) from xcb.freedesktop.org/dist to src/3rdparty/xcb. Adding a configure option '-qt-xcb' to use the sources instead of linking to the respective runtime libraries. Task-number: QTBUG-27803 Change-Id: I6ea87daa382871b2b9072a601511523fa0b9f44b Reviewed-by: Samuel Rødal <samuel.rodal@digia.com>

+Contains the header and sources files from selected xcb libraries:
+
+ libxcb-1.5 together with xcb-proto-1.6 (sync, xfixes, randr sources)
+ libxcb-util-image-0.3.9
+ libxcb-util-keysyms-0.3.9
+ libxcb-util-renderutil-0.3.8
+ libxcb-util-wm-0.3.9
+
+The 'include' directory was obtained by compiling and installing all of the modules.
+They have been tested to run also with libxcb 1.5 (the oldest version we support).
+
+Use the -qt-xcb configure option to use the files instead of system xcb libraries.
+See src/plugins/platforms/xcb/README for details.
