FirstRun.pm make kdesrc-build default to branch-group kf6-qt6

Marius Pa requested to merge nmariusp/kdesrc-build:work/nmariusp/branch-group-kf6-qt6-is-default into master

kdesrc-build --initial-setup should by default configure kdesrc-build to use "branch-group kf6-qt6".

Reasons:

  • The default git branch for KDE Frameworks, Plasma, PIM, Games etc. is Qt6 only.
  • People that want to start programming for KDE should start with kf6-qt6 not with kf5-qt5. In the Matrix room #new-contributors:kde.org , people that want to start programming for KDE kf6-qt6 struggle. E.g. "2023.10.08 10:05:57 UTC J : Ignore kf5-qt5 it's not really the focus anymore, kf6 with qt6 is the focus of KDE."
