Bug description:
  [ Impact ]
  We're encountering a critical issue in Qt 5.15.13 as shipped in Ubuntu 24.04 
(Noble). The Qt V4 JIT engine occasionally generates invalid machine code, 
resulting in crashes at runtime.

  This issue is tracked upstream as
  https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-111935, and was fixed in Qt
  5.15.14.

  Symptoms:
      * Application crashes with segmentation faults or illegal instruction 
errors when executing certain JavaScript in QML (GC).
      * The issue appears to stem from bad register allocation or incorrect 
code paths during JIT compilation.

  This affects users using Lomiri (and plasma) on arm64 (maybe others)
  devices. It causes random crashes in normal day to day use, 100% with
  QV4_MM_AGGRESSIVE_GC=1, never with QV4_FORCE_INTERPRETER=1.

  [ Test Plan ]
      * Start plasmashell or lomiri with set QV4_MM_AGGRESSIVE_GC=1.

  [ Where problems could occur ]
  The fix touches the JIT interpreter code, so potential problems would occur 
there.

  However, we run upstream test suite during build, so it should catch
  any potential regressions.
