Summary:
This PR adds a new class based on the Tokenizer that generates a QTextDocument directly without going via the HTML generator. This gives a lot more control of the format as we are no longer restricted to the limited HTML4 subset implemented by Qt a very long time ago.
This is also intended to be used for the Manuscript build preview, but since the document cannot be serialised to a cache, it is not a straight drop-in replacement for the HTML. The class may need a pack/unpack method for that, which can probably be written from the token array.
