Design decisions for qtogo, a Qt SDK installer and manager for the official online repositories.

A record states the decision and the reasoning behind it; the code and the pull requests that implement it link back here rather than repeating the argument.

Still to be decided

These are not settled yet, and the code that depends on them waits for a record:

• the archive cache: key, location and prune semantics;
• the official installer interfaces and where credentials come from.
