Add CopperSpice support as gb.copperspice?

Description
-----------

CopperSpice is a Qt fork and it's pretty much the same as Qt apart from minor changes listed here:

https://www.copperspice.com/docs/cs_overview/cs-migration.html

Adding support for it is just about copying code for existing gb.qt4 and gb.qt5 to something like gb.copperspice and modify it to build with CopperSpice.

The advantage of this library IMO is it's always updated. You could grab the latest binary build from their website and use it, doesn't like GTK or Qt that depends on the distribution's maintainer to update it. On distros like Mint and Ubuntu LTS, Debian Stable, we always stuck with very old and outdated version of GTK and Qt. This is where something like gb.copperspice really shines.
