Flavors don't scale with non-leaf ports until provides/requires lands.
Each port that depends on sysutils/bsdisks (even indirectly) would have
to support both flavors just to propagate @qt5 back to bsdisks (even
Gtk-based ports would have to support @qt5 flavor to ensure devel/gvfs
doesn't use sysutils/bsdisks@qt6 instead).

For examle, my attempt to add @nox11 blew up in dependencies.
