Improve configure2cmake to find_package only in certain conditions

It doesn't make much sense to look for X11 related packages on
macOS and Windows by default. Usually they would not be there, and
as a result the configuration step would show a long list of scary
not found packages, and also eat precious configure time.

Change the conversion script to allow putting conditions around
generated find_package calls.

These conditions can be manually set in the conversion script
library mapping, using the emit_if argument,
which we do for the X11 and Wayland related packages.

They are also computed by checking which features use a given library,
and if the feature is protected by a simple emitIf condition like
config.linux, the relevant library find_package call will be protected
by the same condition.

If a developer still wishes to look for all packages, they can define
the CACHE variable QT_FIND_ALL_PACKAGES_ALWAYS to ON.

The relevant configure.cmake files are regenerated in this patch.
