Qt6 floor work
When the floor is Qt6 we can use QDateTime/QDate/QTime:fromString format arguments to utf16 string literals.
We last released with Qt6-only builds and almost nobody noticed. I think we've had one Windows user and one Mac user notice. I DID change the server-side upgrade message to not bug you if you were on an OS that Microsoft had abandoned. I can't remember if I similarly added bumpers to Mac users. Qt 6.3 officially "only" goes back to Mojave from 2018, but I have 6.3.1 via Homebrew on my 2012 system that's still on Catalina.
Maybe QT6.2 LTS is a reasonable place to be. Even that's almost a year old, so it's had some air time. We're nine months into its four year cycle.
I think our 32-bit and Windows 7 days are over. Niche users are always welcome to build from source, struggling through whatever they need, and/or keep running old builds that they already have.

A year ago I thought Qt6 was the place to be. Can we forget Qt5 yet?
