Cory Fields 5f93ec2028 depends: Add a package for qt4.6. Linux uses it by default.
We're not ready to switch to a static qt5 for Linux yet due to missing plugin
support. This adds a recipe for building a shared qt4 that we build and link
against, but don't distribute.

make USE_LINUX_STATIC_QT5=1 can be used to build static qt5 as before.

To build dependencies for the current arch+OS:
make
To build for another arch/OS:
make HOST=host-platform-triplet && make HOST=host-platform-triplet
(For example: make HOST=i686-w64-mingw32 -j4)
A prefix will be generated that's suitable for plugging into Bitcoin's
configure. In the above example, a dir named i686-w64-mingw32 will be
created. To use it for Bitcoin:
./configure --prefix=`pwd`/depends/i686-w64-mingw32
No other options are needed, the paths are automatically configured.
Dependency Options:
The following can be set when running make: make FOO=bar
SOURCES_PATH: downloaded sources will be placed here
BASE_CACHE: built packages will be placed here
SDK_PATH: Path where sdk's can be found (used by OSX)
FALLBACK_DOWNLOAD_PATH: If a source file can't be fetched, try here before giving up
NO_QT: Don't download/build/cache qt and its dependencies
NO_WALLET: Don't download/build/cache libs needed to enable the wallet
NO_UPNP: Don't download/build/cache packages needed for enabling upnp
DEBUG: disable some optimizations and enable more runtime checking
USE_LINUX_STATIC_QT5: Build a static qt5 rather than shared qt4. Linux only.
If some packages are not built, for example 'make NO_WALLET=1', the appropriate
options will be passed to bitcoin's configure. In this case, --disable-wallet.
Additional targets:
download: run 'make download' to fetch sources without building them
