Add QJSEngine::registerModule
Some applications that use JavaScript as a scripting language may want to extend JS through C++ code. The current way to do that is with global objects. ES6 provides a better way of encapsulating code: modules. registerModule() allows an application to provide a QJSValue as a named module. Developers familiar with Node.js will find this very easy to use. Example: ```c++ QJSValue num(666); myEngine.registerModule("themarkofthebeast", num); ``` ```js import badnews from "themarkofthebeast"; ``` [ChangeLog][QtQml][QJSEngine] Adds the ability to register QJSValues in C++ as modules for importing in MJS files.
