qt5-base requires many more packages present than just a mere libxkbcommon-x11-dev currently suggested. Let's instead point users to the azure provision script, which has a complete and an up-to-date list of them.

Alternatively, a complete list of those packages could be added to the port file itself, but I find this approach cleaner.

This also signals that some more robust way of declaring a list of system-level dependencies for each port is needed.
