SUMMARY

Build fails with CMake 4.0.2

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Git clone Crow Translate source code
2. Build with CMake 4.0.2

OBSERVED RESULT

The build fails:

CMake Error at src/3rdparty/qhotkey/CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required):
  Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 has been removed from CMake.

  Update the VERSION argument <min> value.  Or, use the <min>...<max> syntax
  to tell CMake that the project requires at least <min> but has been updated
  to work with policies introduced by <max> or earlier.

  Or, add -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 to try configuring anyway.

EXPECTED RESULT

The build succeeds.
