qt6: remove packagegroup-qt6-addons from dey-toolchain builds 

packagegroup-qt6-modules is the base packagegroup added to SDKs that inherit
the populate_sdk_qt6 bbclass. By default, this packagegroup pulls in two other
packagegroups: packagegroup-qt6-essentials and packagegroup-qt6-addons.

The addons packagegroup pulls in a big number of qt packages that we don't even
install in our images. This would be fine if it weren't for the fact that the
bitbake server tends to crash when building several of these packages at once,
even on powerful development PCs. The current workaround is to reduce the
number of bitbake jobs at a project level, but this hinders the overall SDK
build time. Remove the addons and use our own qt6 packagegroup instead.

This way, we prevent errors in our daily builds and the qt6 contents in our
SDKs are more similar to what we provide in our images. In the ccimx8x-sbc-pro
toolchain, this reduces the installer script's size by around 492 MiB.
