PackageDatabase: parse manifests directly instead of via the cache

Measurements showed that the ConfigCache is slower than parsing the
YAML manifests directly on startup. Replace the ConfigCache usage
with a small parseManifests() helper that reads, optionally verifies
the source-content digest and parses each info.yaml. Parallel
parsing, the per-file size limit, the IgnoreBroken behavior and the
installed-package digest verification are all preserved.

The caching-mode toggles enableLoadFromCache()/enableSaveToCache()
are no longer needed and are removed.

Configuration: parse config files directly instead of via the cache

Replace the ConfigCache<ConfigurationData> usage with a direct loop
that reads, substitutes ${...} variables, parses and merges each YAML
config file in order. Path canonicalization, duplicate-file detection
and the per-file size limit are preserved. The --option (-o) snippets
now go through ConfigurationPrivate directly as well.

The QDataStream (de)serialization of ConfigurationData existed only to
feed the cache, so serialize(), loadFromCache(), saveToCache() and
dataStreamVersion() (plus the SerializeStream/SerializeList helpers)
are removed.

Git commit 4b408fa23680d3a2e4361236017bf6be0b7f293c by Robert Griebl on 23/07/2026 at 12:12..
Remove the now-unused ConfigCache

With both the Configuration and the PackageDatabase parsing their YAML
files directly, the ConfigCache engine has no remaining users. Delete
it along with its auto-test coverage and test data.

The --no-cache / --clear-cache command line options (and their
--no-config-cache / --clear-config-cache aliases) no longer do
anything; keep them accepted but move them into the deprecated,
ignored option list so existing command lines keep working. The
qmltestrunner wrapper and the auto-tests no longer pass --no-cache.

Documentation that described the config/appdb caching is updated
accordingly.

Remove the dead QDataStream serialization of the *Info classes

The writeToDataStream()/readFromDataStream()/dataStreamVersion()
methods of PackageInfo, ApplicationInfo and IntentInfo existed only to
feed the ConfigCache. With the cache gone they have no callers, so
remove them along with the now-unused dataStreamVersion() helpers in
OpenGLConfiguration and WatchdogConfiguration.

The exported QDataStream operators for OpenGLConfiguration and
WatchdogConfiguration are left in place as public utility API.
