What is the best option today to do C++ software development on an Android platform? I need C++11, Boost, SQLite, vi/Emacs/whatever, ... and Android is the development platform, not necessarily the target.
Are the development tools on Google Play complete? Do they allow to develop a full scale application?
Are there any advantages in using a Linux VM on Android for this purpose?
You can use NDK with your android app development to embed a C++ code, which will improve the performance considering you are doing much complicated task and if you need native language like C++. But now android runtime [ART/Dalvik] is much better and all the apps are targeted to run on it. You can do a lot of work only in java itself.
And there is no VM available yet. So best way to go with this is use NDK.

As an intermediate-level programmer of C++ (that have been working on C++ for console apps and used only FLTK for GUI apps), I heard much about Qt5 to be suitable and very powerful for creating apps for many platforms such as Windows, Linux, iOS and also Android.
I'm now a novice on Qt and to create apps for PC, I'm going to start reading this book (which is of Qt4).
But I, too, like to start reading a good book on Qt5 that makes me able to create apps for iOS and Android. Is there such a good book?
Any suggestion is fully appreciated.
This book will give you common sense about Qt, but keep in mind that there's a lot of difference between Qt4 and Qt5 (most important that Qt5 improves QtQuick module). To build your iOS or Android app I suggest you will need look deep inside of QtQuick. This book will help you a bit.

I have some experience in Python and know that Kivy is a good platform to create python android apps. Though as side hobby, I am learning c#/unity for indie game development, I know unity is good for developing android game, but let's say I want to build a weather app on android, does unity have the capability to allow developers to do so?
Yes, Unity has the capability to create non-game applications for Android (and iOS). However, I would highly discourage it. Using Unity for non-game development is like building a house out of sheet metal. While it can be done, it's not the right tool for the job and anyone who sees it can tell.

Is there a programming IDE in Android market? Or just an editor that gives certain supportung features like syntax highlighting?
The best solution I've seen so far is Terminal IDE : https://market.android.com/details?id=com.spartacusrex.spartacuside&rdid=com.spartacusrex.spartacuside&rdot=1
Includes fully configured VIM, Java & Java compiler, busybox, ...
BRexx (Rexx) and Ruboto IRB (Ruby) include IDE & runtime as well...I´ve tried both of them, they run pretty stable!
This is a good Blog on Programming for Android on Android. It describes the features, pros and cons of 4 IDEs.

I'm interested in developing an android app that makes use of an OpenCV android port at http://code.google.com/p/android-opencv/. Particularly, I want to use SURF features which comes embedded in the OpenCV framework but I'm not sure if then I will be able to sell this app.
Anyway, is there any non-free app making use of any of the OpenCV android ports?
SURF is a patented algorithm. You need permissions to use it in commercial applications. SURF comes with OpenCV because there its being used for "academic" or "research" purposes, without any commercialization involved.
Read the license files of the particular port you are using.
The two different ports I googled and looked at in the past two minutes seem quite clear.
