Solution #1: compile Qt with -system-sqlite (and provide said system sqlite).
This applies to ANY use of SQLite, whether you need the math functions or not.
As an add-on, this also requires you to locate and distribute all of the
system SQLite libraries. Use a FlatPak
https://www.flatpak.org/
or the older AppImage
https://appimage.org/
on Linux when distributing your software. Don't bundle the system
libraries into your own .deb .rpm .whatever at the system locations.
When packaging your application in distro specific packages, you need to
be very specific about required versions of dependencies. This can get
really hinkey when a user has other applications that need incompatible
SQLite versions.

A custom plug-in may be more up-front work, but it minimizes
installation incompatibilities.
Btw, Snapcraft is a dead distribution method.

I don't do Windows or Mac development, but you will have similar
situations building with -system-sqlite and distributing.
