We default to "auto", which means in most cases "submodule", because something like a "system"-provided (read: packaged) qml-box2d does not yet exist in most distros. Defaulting to system would imho be fine if most systems would provide the dependency.

It's not uncommon that git repos use submodules for dependencies that are populated at build-time. Or do we break some KDE policy here?
