Add qt5-components page.

Also create an ENTITY for qt5 or qt5-alternate and use that
to specify the qt5 dependenies.

The complete KF5/plasma packages should use the full qt5 build, but
the lxqt kf5/plasma components only need qt5-alternate.

31 <application>NetworkManager</application> is a set of co-operative
32 tools that make networking simple and straightforward. Whether you use WiFi,
33 wired, 3G, or Bluetooth, NetworkManager allows you to quickly move from
34 one network to another: Once a network has been configured and joined
35 once, it can be detected and re-joined automatically the next time it's
36 available.

144 run the tests again to test that. It was needed to convince one of
145 the Linux Platform tests to move farther along because otherwise
146 RTNETLINK would respond with an Error 95 - unknown device type.
147 This would cause the test to fail early on in the process.

149 [pierre, Nov 2022]: I cannot tell whether these options are
150 the only ones that are needed. They are the options I had to add
151 in order to have some tests pass. But I already had some other
152 options set for packet filtering (iptables), that may not be
153 available by default and may be necessary. Even with the options
154 below still one test (test-route) fails.-->
