Fixes#1926 : When an IPC event was processed locally, if the window was closed before the core could start, the event handler would be forever stuck in the background waiting for the core to start. We fix this by substituting QApplication::quit() by a Nexus::quit() function and a Nexus::isRunning() function, which gives us a condition for exiting blocking processEvents() loops. We cannot simply use QApplication::quit(), because this function has no effect before the start of the event loop.
The problem was further exacerbated by the Tox URI event handler being (incorrectly) blocking. The IPC owner would block in this event handler, and the sender of the event would give up waiting and process the event itself a second time, potentially triggering the first bug. We fix the event handlers accordingly to be (mostly) non-blocking.
Also fixes a related deadlock between ~Core and ~Profile in the case of an early exit
Revert needed, since otherwise there is no way to do automatic sorting
of includes.
Also reverted change to the docs, as leaving it would make incorrect
docs.
In case of conflicts, includes were sorted according to the coding
standards from #3839.
This reverts commit b4a9f04f92.
This reverts commit 5921122960.
qTox will automatically import the old history on startup.
This new database code is much more robust.
It is very resilient and will not corrupt or disappear after a crash or
power failure, unlike the old code.
The on-disk database format is also much more compact now.
The database sync option in the advanced settings has been removed,
we know run many database operations asynchronously so performance
should not be a problem anymore, but we always ensure resiliency
in case of abrupt termination, so there is no tradeoff anymore.

We create a GUI class to abstract common GUI needs (showing a message box, asking a question, ...) from the actual GUI backend.
We also create a Nexus class to manage the startup and lifetime of our main systems (Core, GUI, ...) instead of delegating that to Widget.
Eventually, Widget will only be in charge of the Desktop GUI and AndroidGUI of the mobile GUI. Nexus will overview the system and GUI will provide a clean platform-independant interface.
