It is a combination of 1 and 2. If 2 is available (Win XP, OS/X) then it is used, otherwise it is emulated. In most cases it is impossible to tell a Qt application from an application using native widgets.
The advantage of Qt's approach is that you can actually change/extend a widget by subclassing. You are also not limited to the lowest common denominator offered by all supported platforms - a serious problem with the third approach.
