When unbinding a shortcut, it may happen that the exact definition of
the request is not known. A typical example it Tab, which is bound to
a complex command sequence.
In this case it is convenient to use the syntax
\unbind "Tab" "*"
To make this word, the special "*" value is translated to the
FuncRequest::unknown lfun and this value is considered specially in
several places.
The checkbox is hidden when backing store is enforced (wayland,
macOS). In practice, only X11 and Windows users will see it ; I only
have evidence of X11 people needing it, I can hide it for Windows
users too if necessary.
Fixes bug #12119.
Those checks might not be needed, but it's not self obvious from
the surrounding code. Because we already experienced crash from
similar change (cf 1c1c83eced96), let's be prudent here.
If you know that these pointers can't be null from broader context
feel free to remove the guards.
Introduced by 24926b2e2399, fix 104fdcc9be40df1 not backported
but now fixed by 1c1c83eced96 in 2.3.

This commit allows compiling LyX with Qt6 when using autotools.
For a successful compilation the following 2 conditions must be met.
1) The Qt6 qmake has to come first in PATH, so that the command
"qmake -v | grep -o 'Qt version .'" returns "Qt version 6".
2) The --enable-qt6 switch has to be passed to the configure command.
If --enable-qt6 is used but Qt6 is not found, Qt5 is tried as a fallback.
If also Qt5 is not found, configuring for Qt4 is attempted.
If --enable-qt6 is not used, then things go as usual. This means that Qt5
is tried first and then Qt4, unless --disable-qt5 is used, in which case
Qt4 is directly attempted. This means that existing scripts should
continue working unmodified.
LyX should compile with Qt6 on windows and linux, and possibly also on
mac, but I could not test that. However, it is not guaranteed that it
works as it should. In particular I am not sure that I got right the
conversion from QRegExp to QRegularExpression. For sure, the syntax
highlighting seems to not work right. Someone in the know should take
a look at that. I am able to load documents and compile them but some
thourough testing is needed. However, when compiling for Qt5 or Qt4,
I tried to make sure that the functionality is preserved.
This commit replaces qSort with std::sort to fix warnings from compiling with
Qt 5.14.1. Below is one of the warnings:
error: ‘void qSort(RandomAccessIterator, RandomAccessIterator, LessThan) [with RandomAccessIterator = QList<lyx::ColorCode>::iterator; LessT$
an = bool (*)(lyx::ColorCode, lyx::ColorCode)]’ is deprecated: Use std::sort [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
qSort() has been deprecated since Qt 5.2. Quoting from the ChangeLog [1]:
With STL no longer being optional for building and using Qt, a number of
parts of QtAlgorithms no longer make sense, and have therefore been
deprecated. Replacements are available in the STL, and generally have
much better performance
There are some cases that require more than just a trivial substitution, but
our code does not appear to use any of those cases.
For some discussion on the differences in speed of std::sort() and
qSort(), see the following:

These are just warnings now, but will likely be errors with Qt 6:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-73048
I tested that LyX can still be built against Qt 4.8.7 with this commit.
This commit follows 24926b2e, which also fixes some deprecation warnings.

https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/dist/changes-5.2.0/?h=v5.2.0
These changes fix a few instances of the following type of warning:
error: ‘void QListWidget::setItemSelected(const QListWidgetItem*, bool)’ is deprecated: Use QListWidgetItem::setSelected() instead [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
as well as similar warnings for setItemHidden() and
setItemExpanded(). These are just warnings now, but it is planned to
remove the methods for Qt 6:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-73048
I tested that LyX can still be built against Qt 4.8.7 with this
commit. Indeed, these methods have been deprecated for a while (it
is just that QT_DEPRECATED_WARNINGS was only turned on by default
starting with 5.13.0). See, e.g.,
https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.7/qlistwidget-obsolete.html
In particular, the directory frontends/qt4 is renamed to frontends/qt.
Many configurations file have to be updated. All mentions of qt4 in
the source have been audited, and changed to qt if necessary.
The only part that has not been updated is the CMake build system.
