REDUCING RUNTIME DEPENDENCIES

The '-qt-xcb' configure option can be used to get rid of most xcb- dependencies. Only libxcb will
still be linked dynamically, since it will be most likely be pulled in via other dependencies anyway.
This should allow for binaries that are portable across most modern Linux distributions.
