 qt5-1.0.tcl: begin building infrastructure to support
 different versions of Qt 5

 Qt can make major functionality changes between minor version changes.
 see https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-versions/pull/1191

 Qt 5.6 is a long term support release which means MacPorts may
     want to keep it around for a while.
 see https://blog.qt.io/blog/2015/12/18/introducing-long-term-support/

 If possible, we want to support as many versions of macOS as we can.
 This sometimes means installing an older version of Qt.
 see https://trac.macports.org/ticket/51801

 Finally, Qt requires substantial patches to KDE Frameworks 5, which
     necessitates a separate port.
 see https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48967
