qt6-quickeffectmaker fails to cross build from source, because
CMakeLists.txt branches on CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING and skips everything
when it is set. Not sure why this is being done, but removing that
branch and setting QT_HOST_PATH makes qt6-quickeffectmaker cross
buildable once ccache is M-A:foreign (see #1116707). I'm attaching a
patch for your convenience.
