The code which extracts style assets for the Android style
is licensed under the Apache license, which is not compatible
with LGPLv2.1. It is, however, compatible with LGPLv3. This
means that the Android platform plugin cannot be LGPLv2.1
as long as this code is included.
To minimize licensing confusion, we default to only providing
LGPLv3 for Android. If you want to build a LGPLv2.1-compatible
library, you can add -no-android-style-assets to the
configuration. This will in turn enable the LGPLv2.1 in
the configure output, and it will disable the extraction
code in the platform plugin.
Running the Android style with an LGPLv2.1-compatible platform
plugin will work, but it will look horrible.
[ChangeLog][Android] Default open-source license for
Qt for Android is now LGPLv3. For compatibility with the LGPLv2.1
license, add "-no-android-style-assets" to your configuration.

When Ministro is not in use, we need to extract style
information on startup in order for the native Android style
to work.
The code to extract data from the device is contributed from
the Ministro project.
[ChangeLog][Android] Enable using native style also when
Ministro deployment mechanism is not in use.
