chore: unify QtCreator fetching code with CI Before this change, QtCreator fetching code from external directory was different from the one from CI scripts. You'd have to specify QtCreator version in two places and the `external` fetch was more complex, requiring you to change file names and checksums for every platform. This change unifies the way to download QtCreator, while simplifying it. Some drawbacks: - Qt Creator now unpacks to `external` source directory, requiring you to delete the `dist` dir, if you want a full clean build. In the most cases, since the downloaded files are binaries, that are stable, you would not want to do that often. - Since Qt Packaging script is invoking CMake and comes from QtCreator distribution, we have to download the QtCreator outside of the CMake build process, which makes things more complex. But we only need to do this once, in the CI, so local builds are as simple, as they were.
