Ah ok, I give up for now... the prev does not really work.
The prior commit works on Windows but not on macOS.
On Windows, it would package all plugins as code and only as code.
On MacOS however, it would not package any plugins at all. And with this commit,
where I mark the plugins folder to be packaged as *data*, it packages all plugins as *both* code and data.
Not sure why.
Let's just package all plugins as both code and data, and ignore the code instances explicitly...
The hw_wallet and jade plugins were being included twice in the pyinstaller binaries.
They were apparently the only two plugins being picked as "modules" (a.pure),
which by default are included as compiled-bytecode.
In addition, we included "electrum/plugins" as data (a.data), which meant all
plugins in source form.
Instead of hacking around to fix the specific issue, this attempts a larger clean-up.

pyinstaller tries to import electrum and its different submodules at build-time
during the "Analysis" phase. sys._GUI_QT_VERSION was not getting set there,
and the resulting exception was blocking pyinstaller from discovering that
gui/common_qt is being used.
at runtime:

```
note: the extra copies in make_osx.sh are needed because of the CI caching
(pyinstaller needs to see the .dylib's inside electrum/, e.g. when importing electrum during Analysis)
based on 907e5e7009
This way users get more feedback from the OS when they attempt to launch the app on old macOS.

note: newer versions of pyinstaller (4.4+ ?) want to sign the bundle
themselves, in which case modifying the Info.plist file after
pyinstaller returns invalidates the sig.
When the monkey-patch was added, we were building pyinstaller onefile
binaries; but since then we changed to build pyinstaller onedir binaries
instead. So I believe there are no embedded files inside the main executable
anymore, so doing `codesign --deep *.app` (near the end of make_osx)
should be sufficient.
This commit ports the work of EchterAgo and cculianu from Electron-Cash,
to implement a new toolchain to scan qr codes.
Previously, on Linux and Win, we have been using zbar to access the camera
and read qrcodes; and on macOS we used CalinsQRReader (an objective-C
project by cculianu).
The new toolchain added here can use QtMultimedia to access the camera,
and then feed that image into zbar. When used this way, zbar needs
fewer dependencies and is easier to compile, in particular it can be
compiled for macOS.
The new toolchain works on all three platforms, with some caveats
(see code comments in related commits) -- so we also keep the end-to-end
zbar toolchain; but at least we can drop CalinsQRReader.
The related changes in Electron-Cash are spread over 50+ commits (several PRs and direct
pushes to master), but see in particular:

Create a pyinstaller "onedir" executable instead of a "onefile" executable.
Note that the name change from "Electrum" to "run_electrum" affects the
name of the internal binary (usually not exposed to users). This is
needed to avoid a collision with the "electrum" folder inside the .app
(just like in the source tree).

When bumping pyinstaller to 3.4, binary sizes had increased drastically.
The main reason seems to be that pyinstaller is pulling in "all" of qt.
