Douglas R. Reno c0f71f24ae QtWebEngine: use Python 3.11 instead, and simplify the instructions.
To do this I've created build_fixes-2.patch. This contains:

- Fix for shipped ffmpeg build failure
- Fixes for Python 3.11 changes
- Changes for ICU-74, but modified to allow building on previous
  versions of BLFS and their versions of ICU
- The NINJAJOBS change
- Chunks from a patch from ArchLinux32 to prevent instantaneous crashes
  in Falkon. Still causes issues with text rendering, so I've created a
  note in the Falkon page. However, video playback and images display
  perfectly. I will revisit this in February once we have the new glibc.
  Unlike previous issues, it no longer crashes, so that's a good start!

This significantly brings down the count of instructions for this page
and should make it a lot easier to follow.

I've tested this on both x86_64 and i686. On i686 there's a major
improvement in that Falkon (and KDE System Monitor) actually start and
run, though in the case of Falkon there is still no text.

How do I convert these XML files to HTML? You need to have some software
installed that deal with these conversions. Please read the INSTALL file to
determine what programs you need to install and where to get instructions to
install that software.

After that, you can build the html with a simple 'make' command.
The default target builds the html in $(HOME)/public_html/blfs-book.

For all targets, setting the parameter REV=systemd is needed to build the
systemd version of the book.

Other Makefile targets are: nochunks, validate, and blfs-patch-list.

nochunks: builds BLFS in one huge file.

validate:  does an extensive check for xml errors in the book.

blfs-patch-list: generates a list of all blfs controlled patches in the book.
