I'd like to point you to:
https://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qquickwindow.html#grabWindow

QtMir exposes a Mir display as a QWindow, so this method will generate
the image you want.

I suspect this would be better implemented in unity8

Title:
  [enhancement] Should be possible to take a screen shot on the phone
  from the phone itself

Status in Qt integration with the Mir display server:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Currently, the only way to take a screenshot is to attach the phone to
  a computer via USB and use phablet-screenshot.

  There should be a way to take a screenshot from the phone. Otherwise,
  it will be hard for people to share how great their phone is on social
  media, as well as other functions.
