Alexandru Croitor d278e682c6 coin: Build standalone examples in a separate build directory ...

Previously configurations with -make examples in their configure args
were building examples as part of the Qt library build. This has some
downsides:
- we don't build examples as a separate project, thus not ensuring
  that we build examples as our users would
- qt cmake deployment api can't be used due to various limitations in
  our tooling

Use the new qtbase instructions to instead build examples as a
separate project in a separate build directory, after Qt is built and
installed. This is similar to how we build standalone tests.

The new instructions are activated by the StandaloneExamples features.
It is opt-in as opposed to standalone tests, so we can disable the
feature in case any regressions happen.
