[poppler] [RFC] Drop the qt4 frontend at the end of the year

[pqt at LEFerguson.com]

Would this affect the availability of the Arthur front end?  I had the impression it was somehow related to QT4, but maybe it just started back then?

Subject: [poppler] [RFC] Drop the qt4 frontend at the end of the year

Hi, as mentioned partially in another thread I'd like to drop the qt4 frontend at the end of the year.

Reasons:
 * Qt upstream stopped supporting Qt4 in May 2015
 * KDE (one of the major Qt users) will stop releasing apps based in Qt4 at the end of the year too.


I would not mind keeping the code if someone else steps up to maintain it, but 
*personally* I will not care about it, or have qt4 installed to check if 
things even compile after the end of the year.

Cheers,
  Albert
