first cut at using Gtk4 built in video playback
, implement media playback using QtMultimedia for the
Qt 6 based VCL plugins (qt6/kf6) via a new service
"com.sun.star.comp.avmedia.Manager_Qt".
Video playback with the mechanism used for qt5 no
longer works with qt6, as "qwidget5videosink"
that gets used on Wayland for qt5 wasn't ported
to Qt 6 and is unmaintained, s. the commit message of

qt6: Add a qt6 VCL plugin
for more details. Additionally, this also doesn't work
properly any more on X11/with the xcb Qt QPA platform, see
tdf#145735 comment 7.
Instead of using GStreamer directly, let Qt handle
the low-level stuff by using the QtMultimedia module [1]
instead.
This adds a new dependency on QtMultimedia.
For building, this requires installing the Qt 6 QtMultimedia
development headers (e.g. package `qt6-multimedia-dev`
on current Debian testing).
Except for WASM, the use of QtMultimedia is enabled by
default when building with autogen options `--enable-qt6`
or `--enable-kf6`, but can explicitly be disabled using
`--disable-qt6-multimedia`.
In tests with the qt6 VCL plugin on Debian testing, with a
sample presentation containing an embedded
video, attachment 145517 from tdf#120452, video playback
generally works for both, the xcb and the wayland
Qt QPA platforms:
* Video and audio are played as expected on the external
screen in presentation mode when using the presenter
console
* Video and audio playback work in non-presentation
mode by clicking on the video and using the controls
in the Impress sidebar (play, pause,...).
However, the following issues were observed with
the current implementation:
* There's an odd frame/margin around the video.
* In non-presentation mode, the placeholder
shown until the video gets started using the controls
in the sidebar is just an "audio icon", not a frame
from the actual video. (This might be related to the
fact that `QtPlayer::createFrameGrabber` currently
returns an empty reference.)
* At least on Wayland (issue not observed with
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb so far), when using the presenter
console, video playback in the presenter console (i.e. on the
non-presentation screen) is unreliable: The video
sometimes shows, but sometimes doesn't. At least the
(more important) one on the presentation screen was
reliably shown in my tests, however.
Tested with git dev versions of qtbase
(as of commit 8d5e7d50d8dbf1ad79bd8ff9f6ef6028eba481c9),
qtwayland (as of commit 6f0ebd916f176f6fbe35af28caeb52b62768ac94)
and qtmultimedia (as of commit
264b7e8d7d5683252102b5e5149685c8b8a70c2d).
