[oe] [meta-qt5] Why is GLib disabled?

[Carlos Rafael Giani]

Hello,

in most Qt5 builds, I have seen GLib support enabled. But in meta-qt5, 
the corresponding packageconfig is disabled by default. Is there a 
reason for this?
It does cause problems when interfacing with libraries that make use of 
the GLib mainloop (for example, GStreamer).

Partially historic reasons no longer valid with _remove operator.

It's easier to add stuff to PACKAGECONFIG than remove stuff. So I wanted to
make meta-qt5 as small as possible (to build) with minimal PACKAGECONFIG,
there are couple of comments in qtbase_git.bb advising people to enable
some PACKAGECONFIG options to make qtbase more useful for other recipes
like qtdeclarative or qtwebkit.

Regards,
