We previously tried to build the MXE Docker container on GitHub using
an Action, but that really didn't work well and was a lot more trouble
than it was worth.
So this goes back to an offline build mechanism where I simply create
an updated Docker image when needed and push that to Docker Hub.
But this nearly hides the most interesting change here - we are finally
switching to using 64bit binaries on Windows. It's 2020 and fewer than
1% of our users use 32bit Windows machines. We'll need to expand this
to be able to have both a 32bit and a 64bit version of Subsurface for
Windows. But for now, this solves the problem for 99% of our users.

- use hidapi grantlee and mdbtools from MXE
- update MXE version to use QT 5.15, and pull in libzstd and CMake 3.17.3
- fix linking of winmm on windows build with new mxe
- add some instructions on building the container
- add some new dependancies from QT 5.15 to the packaging
- add a patch to MXE to Build qtconnectivity with native-win32-bluetooth
[Dirk Hohndel: small refactor]

Sadly, there's an explicit change in the sources to of QtConnectivity
that requires this workaround when running the build on a case sensitive
file system.

Based on ideas from Anton - both the basic building of containers in the first
place as well as the workaround for the 6h build limit.
Because GitHub Actions are limited to 6 hours we split the creation of the MXE
container into two steps and push the intermediary container after stage 1 to
docker hub. Right now each of the steps takes about 3.5 hours, so hopefully
even with changes in the future this will continue to work.
This commit also introduces use of docker hub instead of GitHub's own registry
(since strangely right now GitHub actions cannot run containers from GitHub's
private registry).
In order for this to work, we need to have the docker credentials in secrets in
GitHub. As a result, only people who can create branches in our repository can
easily test changes to the container images. Others can modify the code to use
a different docker hub account and provide those secrets in their own GitHub
account. Not ideal, but of course we cannot allow every pull request to
potentially overwrite docker images in our "official" docker hub account.
