This would be replacing one bug with another, because it'd break certain
internal Oracle builds. A proper fix needs to accept either.

When running configure.py on Linux with a standard upstream Qt 6 SDK
via --with-qt-dir, the Qt test program fails to link because
configure.py hardcodes Oracle's internal '-lQt6CoreVBox' library name:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lQt6CoreVBox: No such file or directory
Use the standard 'Qt6Core' library name so that --with-qt-dir works
with upstream Qt 6 builds on Linux.
