Install Qt6 in CI runners and dev environments
Upgrade from Qt5 to Qt6 in our CI runners and dev environments, since
the latest PySide6 versions do not support Qt5. This leaves only our
Debian / Fedora packages relying on Qt5, since there's no PySide6
package for them yet.

There are some caveats to the Qt6 upgrade:

1. Debian Bullseye has a missing dependency to `libgl1`, so we need to
   install it separately.
2. Ubuntu Jammy has a missing dependency to `libxkbcommon-x11-0`, which
   we have to install separately.
3. Ubuntu Focal does not have Qt6, but surprisingly PySide6 works with
   Qt5.
4. All Debian-based distros require `libxcb-cursor0`.

As a side effect, we have to make our `env.py` a bit more complicated,
to cater to these exceptions.
