rABCc400d7892062: Fix QPainter non-determinism on macOS
Summary

Aplies a patch to Qt that fixes the non-determinism by modifying Qt. The
source of the non-determinism is how LLVM 8 optimizes qt_intersect_spans
when compiling. The particular optimization that seems to be causing the
problems is that a temp variable is being added for spans->y. For some
reason, when it does this, it chooses different instructions to use when
making that variable. We bypass this problem by patching
qt_intersect_spans to always make and use this local variable.

This is a backport of core#20447

Test Plan

gitian builds, cross compilation builds, guix build
