QCustomSocialButton
A brand-coloured sign-in / share button.
"Continue with GitHub", "Share on X". The brand colour is the whole point, so the widget ships a small table of them and picks the readable foreground automatically rather than making every caller look up a hex value and then get the contrast wrong.
The brand MARK is deliberately not drawn: reproducing a company logo is a
trademark question, not a painting one, so the caller supplies an icon and
the widget supplies the colour, shape and layout. brandColor is exposed so
an unlisted brand still works.
Emits clicked().
