I was trying to make Qt 5 packages for Tizen when I realised that the
automated build scripts that generate debuginfo packages were failing, saying
that our libraries are already stripped.

Turns out that qmake generates "strip --strip-unneeded" commands when in
release mode. There's a way to turn it off by passing an extra CONFIG to qmake,
but that is not accessible from the configure command-line.

Either way, stripping by default sounds wrong to me. Distributions already
have their own tools to strip. So I'm proposing that we stop doing that. See

        https://codereview.qt-project.org/34835

For our own SDK, we might need to add the stripping at the appropriate
place(s).
