[Bug]: Unable to install QtWebEngine

[Poldraunic]

Bug description

It seems with the release of Qt 6.8, QtWebEngine module has been moved to a different directory. Now, command aqt -c aqt.conf install-qt linux desktop 6.8.0 linux_gcc_64 -m qtwebengine qtwebchannel qtpositioning will fail to install qtwebengine with error ERROR : The packages ['qtwebengine'] were not found while parsing XML of package information!

For example:

• 6.7.3 Mirror: https://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/qt/online/qtsdkrepository/windows_x86/desktop/qt6_673/. qtwebengine is present.
• 6.8.0 Mirror: https://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/qt/online/qtsdkrepository/windows_x86/desktop/qt6_680/qt6_680/. qtwebengine is missing. However, it is now present here: https://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/qt/online/qtsdkrepository/windows_x86/extensions/qtwebengine/680/msvc2022_64/.

Same behaviour on both Windows and Linux. I suppose, MacOS is no different, but I am unable to test this right now.

Expected behavior

I expect it work the same way as it did for previous versions. The --extensions flag is deprecated and I am unable to use it.

aqt and python version

v3.1.18 on Python 3.12.3 [CPython GCC 13.2.0]

Operating System

Linux/Unix, MacOS, Windows
