OpenSceneGraph - Unnecessary Dependency on Qt4

Description
osgViewer has a back-end for native windowing using Cocoa - which is default, also set correctly in the CMake config in the portfile. I'm not sure why the CMake config parameters in the port file force Qt4 (DESIRED_QT_VERSION) and drag in Qt as a dependency (port:qt4-mac). If needed, the osgViewer back-end with Qt and probably Qt4 dependency should be either upgraded to Qt5 or made a variant.
In the current implementation an installation of OpenSceneGraph (also -devel) is impossible with Qt5 installed and vice versa.

Thanks for the suggestion. I see a new version of OSG is available too. I'll look into updating the port.

The README says a Cocoa backend still needs to be written; that information appears to be outdated and that a Cocoa backend was already written for OSG 3.0.
Looks like we added the flag to use Cocoa in r106454 to fix #39006, without removing the flags that use Qt. I guess since then it's been using both?
I changed OpenSceneGraph-devel to no longer use Qt in r122761 and OpenSceneGraph in r122762.
