Incompatibility with zint 2.7.0 #86

Since the update of zint to 2.7.x, the function ZBarcode_Render is no longer available. It was deprecated and is removed in the meantime.

The CMake script detects zint nevertheless causing the compilation to fail. Can you add a check for zint>=2.7.0 and remove it from the build if not compatible?

Disable Zint barcode backend for zint-2.7.x (#86)
ac93dc9 
- New zint API is incompatible, may eventually create a compatible backend

Owner

I just pushed ac93dc9, which disables the zint barcode backend for 2.7.x.

Meanwhile, I recently started the Zint27 branch to create a compatible backend. Unfortunately, scaling in the new API is not straight forward, nor does it seem to be symbology-independent. If anyone wants to take a crack at it, please do -- it will be a couple of weeks before I can get back to it.

Add handling of new Zint API >= 2.7.0 for Zint backend and use latest
3b88071 
version (2.12.0) by default (issues jimevins#86 and jimevins#160, subsumes PR jimevins#164).

 - hack "FindLibZint.cmake" to use `zint -h` to get version;
   define `LIBZINT_VERSION`
 - add new API handling in `Zint` in LIBZINT_VERSION >= 20700 define,
   leaving 2.6.3 handling unchanged
 - add some new Zint barcodes and adjust style properties of various other
   Zint barcodes
 - enable check digit handling via Zint `option_2`
 - add horizontal alignment `halign` argument to `Barcode::addText()`,
   `QtRenderer::drawText()` and `DrawingPrimitiveText::DrawingPrimitiveText()`
   and use in `QtRenderer::drawText()` to cater for Zint EAN/UPC left/right
   text align of outside digits
 - guard against QT infinite loop bug in `QFontMetricsF` when point size
   < ~0.4 (MIN_POINT_SIZE)
