Add a private API to capture a graphics frame

This commit provides a minimal API for capturing a graphics
frame, save it and replay it later for debugging. The intention
here is to provide the basic need for future work to allow capturing
through tooling or programmatically from code. This API is
intended to be cross-platform by using Metal Capture Manager on
Apple devices and RenderDoc C++ API everywhere else.

+    \class QGraphicsFrameCaptureRenderDoc
+    \internal
+    \brief The QGraphicsFrameCaptureRenderDoc class provides a way to capture a record of draw calls
+           for different graphics APIs.
+    \since 6.6
+    \inmodule QtGui
+
+    For applications that render using graphics APIs like Vulkan or OpenGL, it would be
+    convenient to have a way to check the draw calls done by the application. Specially
+    for applications that make a large amount of draw calls and the output is different
+    from what is expected.
+
+    This class acts as a wrapper over \l {https://renderdoc.org/}{RenderDoc} that allows
+    applications to capture a rendered frame either programmatically, by clicking a key
+    on the keyboard or both. The captured frame could be viewed later using RenderDoc GUI.
+
+    Read the \l {https://renderdoc.org/docs/index.html} {RenderDoc Documentation}
+    for more information.
+
+    \section1 API device handle
+
+    The functions that capture a frame like QGraphicsFrameCaptureRenderDoc::startCaptureFrame takes a device
+    pointer as argument. This pointer is unique for each graphics API and is associated
+    with the window that will be captured. This pointer has a default value of \c nullptr.
+    If no value is passed to the function the underlying API will try to find the device to
+    use, but it is not guaranteed specially in a multi-window applications.
+
+    For OpenGL, the pointer should be the OpenGL context on the platform OpenGL is being
+    used. For example, on Windows it should be \c HGLRC.
+
+    For Vulkan, the pointer should point to the dispatch table within the \c VkInstance.
