ACK 4af4672525f698c7b491023fcd36a17a4e982070 - this looks ok. I've tested this with Qt 5.15.0 and Qt 5.7.1 system libs, as well as 5.9.8 from depends.

Pull request description:
This PR makes `bitcoin_qt.m4` to use `pkg-config` for all hosts and removes non-pkg-config paths from it. This is a step towards the idea which was clear [stated](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8314#issue-76644643) by Cory Fields:
> I believe the consensus is to treat Windows like the others and require pkg-config across the board. We can drop all of the non-pkg-config paths, and simply AC_REQUIRE(PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG)
There are two unsolved problems with this PR. If depends is built with `DEBUG=1` the `configure` script fails to pickup Qt:
- for macOS host (similar to, but not the same as #16391)
- for Windows host (regression)
The fix is ~on its way~ submitted in #18298 (as a followup).
Also this PR picks some small improvements from #17820.

Pull request description:
Implements #8263.
Qt4.x has been EOL since 2015, and at least Gentoo has, or is going to drop support for it. I wouldn't be surprised if other Linux distributions follow.
This removes Qt4 detection from the build system, as well as removes all Qt4 fallbacks from the code. Turns out there's more than I expected: this is going to make maintenance of the GUI code, as well as adding new features significantly easier.
(I know there's still some references left to qt4 in RPM and Debian build script, but I don't have the knowledge how to fix them)

Qt 5.8.0 introduced format version 2 for resources embedded into executable,
and now rcc uses this format by default to generate them.
Unfortunately, v2 format includes timestamps for embedded resource files.
Some of resource files (translations) are generated automatically
and have different timestamps for every build.
This means that dash-qt executable is slightly different for every build
because resource data contain different timestamps.
As a result, it makes reproducible build extremely difficult.
Fortunately, Qt 5.9.0 introduced --format-version option for rcc.
This change adds configure check for whether rcc accepts this option
and uses it to force rcc to generate version 1 format data.

Qt5 is bottled, so configure won't find it without some help. Use
brew to find out its prefix.
Also, qt5 added the host_bins variable to pkg-config, use it.
