Smithy code generator for Qt

Smithy Qt

Smithy Qt is (or will be, eventually) two things:

1. QtSmithy - a cross-platform naitve Qt library for reading Smithy models; and
2. smithy-qt - a cross-platform CLI tool for rendering text files in response to Smithy models.

Smithy Qt is written in Qt, and optimised for generating Qt code (specifically for replacing QtAws's bespoke code generator), but by using the generic Grantlee templating engine, could be used to generate code (or indeed non-code) for any language or technology.
