One immediate workaround to try is to set
QT_XCB_FORCE_SOFTWARE_OPENGL=1
environment variable.

Alternatively,
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/kkofler/qtwebengine
has some (admittedly hackish) patched mesa builds to workaround the issue of 
nouveau not supporting multi-threaded rendering (that webengine uses) too.

there's also some discussion upstream at
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-41242
on alternative approaches, like "disable-gpu-when-using-nouveau-
boo-1005323.diff" referenced there.
