Qt5 is not supported anymore since May 2025, and all development should have moved over to Qt6 years ago (see https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qt-releases.html for details). Plus, the usage of the Qt5 bindings has been slim, and it is built atop the legacy WPE/libwpe API, and we would rather have people use the Qt6 bindings which are built upon the new WPEPlatform API.
Let's remove the Qt5 bindings from the tree.

There are a few places more where there are Qt5 leftovers, reopening for a follow-up.
