FreeType: Skip bitmap decode for metrics-only glyph loads

When available, use FT_LOAD_BITMAP_METRICS_ONLY for fetching
metrics to avoid decoding the same bitmap data multiple times
when only the glyph metrics are queried.

This can improve the rendering performance of individual emojis by
4000%.

VxWorks 26.03 fixes tst_QFile::openDirectory() fail on CI

Using VxWorks 24.03 and 25.03 caused tst_QFile::openDirectory() to fail,
on 26.03 it works, the QEXPECT_FAIL macro has been removed.

Massage qrhi autotest to avoid weird Vulkan layer issues

Start (re)using the same QRhi (and so Vk or D3D device object) between
some test cases. Especially textureFormats(), where with each backend
a simple test is run 50+ times. Creating a new QRhi every time is
slow, so this shaves off some seconds from the total time of the
autotest run mainly because of that one test. Also use it in some of
the recent, newer test functions. Stick to the per-test QRhi in the
rest, however.

Move the leaked resource test to the last place. This test may cause
issues, somehow perhaps combined with the large number of vkCreateDevice
calls preceeding (or following) it, depending on the underlying driver,
and perhaps the third-party, implicitly loaded Vulkan layers installed
on the system (e.g. from Steam, OBS Studio, etc.).

At least one one system these changes together successfully prevent an
intermittently occuring
"The VkDevice dispatch handle was not found and Validation will crash."
crash. AI assisted analysis points to a combination of possible driver
limitations due to the excess device creations during the lifetime of
the process in combination with faulty logic in third-party layers
that are loaded implicitly by the Vulkan loader on that particular
system.

rhi: d3d12: Enable the pipeline cache

Using ID3D12PipelineLibrary1, in a similar manner as the Vulkan backend
is implemented via VkPipelineCache. Store a header with the QRhi id, the
architecture and the adapter identity, followed by the serialized blob.
Note that the driver version does not have to go into the header,
because CreatePipelineLibrary() validates the blob against the current
driver and adapter itself, failing with
D3D12_ERROR_DRIVER_VERSION_MISMATCH or _ADAPTER_NOT_FOUND. Skip in that
case. Pipeline libraries may not be supported by a driver, handle that
gracefully too.

The one thing that has no counterpart in the Vulkan backend is naming:
VkPipelineCache is consulted by the driver transparently, whereas a
pipeline library needs an explicit name per PSO for LoadPipeline() and
StorePipeline(). The name is a SHA-1 of everything the PSO is built
from: the shader bytecode of each stage, the vertex input layout, the
plain-data subobjects of the pipeline state stream, and the srb's
serialized layout description, the latter standing in for the root
signature. Note that a hash collision cannot silently produce a wrong
pipeline: LoadPipeline() validates the stored pipeline against the
description passed to it and fails if they do not match, in which case
this falls back to creating the pipeline for real.

As with Vulkan, running a Qt Quick application will now store the blob
when closing the QQuickWindow (use QSG_INFO=1 to confirm from the logs),
and the next run, assuming no new scenegraph materials are needed for
the view, there will be a reduced amount of time spent on graphics
pipeline creation due to the loading of the blob from the previous run.
Note however that the system's/driver's own persistent caching may
affect the results, so as with Vulkan, the gains from doing our own PSO
caching on disk are not always obvious or big.

rhi: d3d: Bail out with a warning for an unknown shader stage

Cannot happen, unless the QShader is corrupt, but handle it more
gracefully, so analysis tools do not flag it as a potential safety
issue.

rhi: gl: Handle too small uniform buffers more gracefully

Bail out if we'd read past the end based on the QShader reflection
information due to the application-supplied buffer being too small.

This does not change the fact that all input is still expected to
be fully trusted content.
