How to write Lighthouse backends

The short version: Look at the files in

Even if Lighthouse at some point gets included in an official Qt release, we will not promise binary compatibility between minor versions: A Lighthouse plugin is tied to a specific version of Qt, just as much as the individual Qt libraries are tied together.
