Allow QML plugins to be optional
If a plugin does nothing but load the library that provides the types, we can skip the plugin loading by linking the library directly. State that in the qmldir file, and evaluate it when loading the module. Task-number: QTBUG-84639 Change-Id: I2097237866a50f66c55e4653ad119fe10e18a893 Reviewed-by: Paul Wicking <paul.wicking@qt.io> Reviewed-by: Fabian Kosmale <fabian.kosmale@qt.io>
