I know paper mentioned splitting things where appropriate but I made some QT(5) changes to get this to work. Sure there are some revbumps missing there. Not sure if QT stuff should be separated first.

Have not tested electronXX builds in a bit because they're long.

Have not built kodi or omxplayer, but should work fine since they're still 4.

I suspect `hedgewars` could be made to work fine with 6. I haven't checked if there's any updates or patches in a while.

Any misc packages could be tested for sanity but should work fine. I only run a few vaapi/ffmpeg things regularly: `shotcut`, `firefox(nightly)`, `discord`, `mpv`. Other packages "use" ffmpeg but for side features I never touch like `dolphin-emu` and `blender`.

The `spek-alternative` replacement idk if I did the 'remove old package' thing right.

Did not test 'depends' of packages that bring in 4, just kind of installed it and am able to remove 4 in case of reinstall conflicts. I assume that's good enough to be covered in patch notes?
