[vlc-devel] [RFC 07/82] contrib: update qt to 5.12, compile it with ANGLE support

The other solution would be to provide the shader precompiled within the sources, this is how it's done within the original ANGLE repository

https://github.com/google/angle/tree/master/src/libANGLE/renderer/d3d/d3d11/shaders/compiled

yes

> Have you tried upstreaming this patch?

Actually this is not my patch, it comes from 
https://github.com/rurban/smhasher

the original SMHasher repository seems a bit stalled

I can try to propose it to Qt though.

I haven't tried Win/ARM64. My branch is available at:
