Force GLES 2.0 on Android 4.2 devices reporting 3.0

Android does not support GLES 3.0 before 4.3 (API level 18). However some
4.2.2 devices are reported to return 3.0 in the version string and therefore
choose the GLES 3+ code paths in Qt. This blows up sooner or later because
the 3.0 specific functions are apparently not present at all.
