doc: Suggest installing dev packages for debian/ubuntu qt5 build
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Pretty much all library packages were renamed in the 64-bit time_t
migration to add `t64` (even on 64-bit platforms).

Instead of complicating the doc with conditional package names, suggest
installing the `-dev` packages which still have the same name, and
besides that, are the right way to go about it as they contain the
"user facing" C++ headers needed to build against Qt5.

For Fedora, devel packages are already suggested.

This affects Ubuntu 24.04 and Debian Testing.
