    Description

      When configuring Qt Creator against Qt Qt 6.2+ without any of Tracing/QmlProfiler/PerfProfiler, the build breaks like so:

      AutoMoc subprocess error
------------------------
The moc process failed to compile
  "SRC:/src/plugins/qmlprofiler/qmlprofilerplugin.h"
into
  "BIN:/src/plugins/qmlprofiler/QmlProfiler_autogen/EWIEGA46WW/moc_qmlprofilerplugin.cpp"

Output
------
C:/Users/alportal/dev/qt-creator-qt6/src/plugins/qmlprofiler/qmlprofilerplugin.h(38:1): error: Plugin Metadata file "QmlProfiler.json" does not exist. Declaration will be ignored

      The reason is that qt_add_qml_module() will create a target if the passed target does not exist (for example because it was disabled in the configuration). That created target does not build by itself.
