    Description

      Trying to use a Qt5 CMake kit results in a configuration error:

      [cmake] CMake Error at C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/Professional/Common7/IDE/CommonExtensions/Microsoft/CMake/CMake/share/cmake-3.26/Modules/CMakeDetermineSystem.cmake:154 (message):
[cmake]   Could not find toolchain file:
[cmake]   d:/Qt/5.15.15/msvc2019_64/lib/cmake/Qt/qt.toolchain.cmake

      The reason being that there is no toolchain file in Qt5. For Qt5, we must set CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.

      That begs the question whether we should set CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH instead of the toolchain file for Qt6 kits as well. Probably yes.
