    Description

      We should have documentation about the key concepts and internal functions that we use to build Qt.

      Things like qt_internal_add_module, qt_internal_add_resource, qt_build_repo.
      Mention how qt_internal_add_resource differs from qt_add_resource.
      Mention that static qt plugin target names need to end with a Plugin suffix.
      Mention qt_feature, all the various options that it can take like CONDITION, AUTODETECT, ENABLE, and also how passing configure args like FEATURE_foo and INPUT_foo affect feature selection.

      And many more other things.
