QImage uses directories listed in QT_PLUGIN_PATH or QCoreApplication::libraryPaths() to load its plugins. On a machine with installed Qt, QImage will have the right directory in there. On a Mac package, libraryPaths will include MythFrontend.app/Contents/MacOS, so this should be a matter of copying some extra libs in there.

This adds the relevant plugins:

(In [26663]) Bundle up Qt image decoding plugins. Closes #8898. Also now include mythpreviewgen binary, and makes sure a dir exists before coping a file into it.
