   Backports #14849 to the 0.17 branch.

   Qt 5.9.7

   Release announcement Changelog

   Expat 2.2.6

   • Avoid doing arithmetic with NULL pointers in XML_GetBuffer
   • Fix 2.2.5 regression with suspend-resume while parsing a document like <root/>

   Full changelog here

   https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commit/70b33c25779719a057b80eb516c35dd53ae4bfc4 disables a bunch of qt features we aren't currently using. This speeds up the qt depends build slightly (also decreases the size of the built qt-5.9.7 tar by about 2%). The disabling is somewhat unintuitive, hence [wip] until after a travis run and gitian build.
