Changes since 2.0

Changed

• Ported to Qt 6 (6.4 or newer). Qt4 and Qt5 are no longer supported. Source port by
  Théotime de Charrin (MOBS team).
• Builds with CMake 3.16 and C++17 against libneurosuite 3 (formerly libklustersshared),
  which can also be built as part of Klusters (-DKLUSTERS_BUNDLE_NEUROSUITE=ON).
• Installs a desktop entry and AppStream metadata under the ID io.github.neurosuite.Klusters.
• Windows and macOS packages bundle the Qt runtime (Windows also the MSVC runtime) and show the handbook with the
  built-in viewer (QTextBrowser), as does the AppImage. The .deb uses QtWebEngine.
• The handbook is found relative to the executable, so relocated installs show it.
• Licence file corrected to GPL-3.0-or-later, matching the source headers.

Removed

• Qt4/Qt5 and KDE4 build code and the old depends packaging helper.
