Fix the About Qt dialog text to be truthful, post-LGPL

Update the text of the About Qt dialog, as directed by Legal.  Note that
this change breaks string freeze as the text is translatable, however
Legal has decided that shipping legally correct text has priority over
shipping complete translations.  This change includes updated .ts files
to correct the source strings, but no updated translations.

This change also removes out-of-date licensing text from the About
dialogs of Designer, Assistant, Linguist, QtConfig and qdbusviewer.
Those particular changes should not break translations as they only
remove translatable strings and do not modify any others.
