Upgrade depends/ build system to use Qt5.9 #10505

@jonasschnelli

Description

@jonasschnelli

Qt5.9 has been released.

Notable could be:

With Qt 5.9, we have had a strong focus on performance and stability. We’ve fixed a large number of bugs all across Qt[...]

Finally, we added support for compiling Qt in a size optimized mode (-Os on GCC), saving around 5-20% in binary size for the Qt libraries and your applications.

One major decision we have taken is to make Qt 5.9 another long-term supported (LTS) release. The previous LTS release, Qt 5.6, is starting to show it’s age, and many users have been asking for a more up to date version of Qt that they can use as a basis for long running projects.
