Implement the Qt 6 TODO for using an externally-provided render target
when rendering the scene via QRhi.
And say hello to QQuickRenderTarget. This class exists to allow
potentially extending later what a "render target" consists
of. Instead of hard-coding taking a single void * in the
setRenderTarget() function, it takes a (implicitly shared,
d-pointered) QQuickRenderTarget, which in turn can be created via
static factory functions - of which new ones can be added later on.
The new version of QQuickWindow::setRenderTarget() takes a
QQuickRenderTarget.
QQuickRenderControl gets a new initialize() variant, and a few extra
functions (beginFrame(), endFrame()). This allows it to, by using
QSGRhiSupport internally, create a QRhi under the hood.
As a bonus, this also fixes an existing scenegraph resource leak when
destroying the QQuickRenderControl.
The qquickrendercontrol autotest is extended, with a QRhi-based test
case that is executed for all of the QRhi backends that succeed to
initialize. This is the internal verification. In addition, there is
a Vulkan-based one that creates its own VkDevice, VkImage, and
friends, and then uses Qt Quick with the same Vulkan device, targeting
the VkImage. This test verifies the typical application use
case. (sadly, life is too short to waste it on writing Vulkan
boilerplate for an on-screen version of this, but we have the D3D11
example instead)
What QQuickRenderControl loses, when used in combination with QRhi, is
the grab() function. This never made much sense as a public API:
QQuickWindow::grabWindow() call this when the window is associated
with a rendercontrol, so as a public API QQuickRenderControl::grab()
is redundant, because one gets the same result via the standard
QQuickWindow API. It is now made private.
More importantly, reading back the content is no longer supported,
unless the 'software' backend is in use. The reasoning here is that,
if the client of the API manages and provides the render target (as
abstracted by QQuickRenderTarget), it is then expected to be capable
of reading back the content in whatever way it sees fit, because it
owns and manages the resource (e.g. the texture) in the first
place. Providing fragile convenience functions for this is not
reasonable anymore, and was questionable even with OpenGL, given that
it is not future proof - what if the target is suddenly a floating
point texture, for instance? The software backend case makes sense
because that relies on private APIs - and has no render target concept
either - so there the same cannot be achieved by applications by
relying on public APIs only.
Another new class is QQuickGraphicsDevice. This is very similar to
QQuickRenderTarget, it is a simple container capable of holding a set
of of native objects, mostly in the form of void*s, with future
extensibility thanks to the static factory functions. (examples of
native object sets would be a ID3D11Device + ID3D11DeviceContext, or a
QOpenGLContext, or a MTLDevice + MTLCommandQueue, or a number of
Vulkan device-related objects, etc.) This allows one to specify that
the QRhi created under the hood (either by QQuickRenderControl or by
the render loop) should use an existing graphics device (i.e. it is
basically a public wrapper for values that go into a QRhi*InitParams
under the hood).
QQuickRenderTarget and QQuickGraphicsDevice are both demonstrated in a
new example: rendercontrol_d3d11. We choose D3D11 because it is
reasonably simple to set up a renderer with a window, and, because
there is known user demand for Qt Quick - external D3D engine
interop. Passing in the custom engine's own ID3D11Device and
ID3D11DeviceContext is essential: the texture (ID3D11Texture2D) Qt
Quick is targeting would not be usable if Qt Quick's QRhi was using a
different ID3D11Device.

...called rendercontrol_opengl under examples/quick/rendercontrol. This
example is going to be migrated to support operating with RHI-on-OpenGL
later on.
Additionally, we can this way introduce more rendercontrol examples in
the future, for example to show how to do things with Vulkan, Metal,
D3D.
