    Description

      While trying to port qtimageformats to CMake, if I don't specify a find_package(Qt5Widgets), the configuration process fails with a bunch of errors like:

      CMake Error in src/plugins/imageformats/wbmp/CMakeLists.txt:
        Error evaluating generator expression:
      
          $<TARGET_FILE:Qt5::uic>
      
        No target "Qt5::uic"
      

      This is because we automatically enable "uic" autogen for all qt targets via qt_autogen_tools() function, unless the DISABLE_AUTOGEN_TOOLS option is specified.

      We shouldn't have to specify that option in so many places though.
