Description
When performing a top-level build, the `-skip-tests` and `-skip-examples` are very useful options, but they are case-sensitive which does not match the behavior of other common flags like `-submodules`. This can lead to confusion because the build system does not check that there is a submodule with the given name, and it is easy to miss the "Manually-specified variables were not used by the project" warning at the end of configure output.
For example, passing `-skip-tests qtdeclarative`, at the end of configure I see
Manually-specified variables were not used by the project: QT_BUILD_TESTS_PROJECT_qtdeclarative
