instead of making the "real" targets depend on the makefiles, add
conditional makefile generation to the targets themselves.
this causes makefile generation to follow the recursion order determined
by the project, which is important when dealing with prl and module pri
files.
a side effect of this is that qmake and make calls are interleaved now,
which is entirely different from a 'qmake -r' run.
on the downside, calling make with multiple targets which operate on the
same subprojects without prior makefile generation will make a mess, as
the qmake calls will be racing. this should be no problem, as qmake does
not generate recursive targets where this would be useful - at least by
default.
it is not sufficient to just order the creation of the makefiles
non-recursively (e.g., by using gnu-specific order-only-prerequisites),
as an interrupted and subsequently resumed build would happily skip the
nested makefiles.
workable alternative approaches would be walking the entire tree in a
pre-pass to ensure makefile presence (which is incredibly slow) or
creating additional stamp files only after recursing and having the
makefiles depend on them (which is ugly).

if a "subdir" project added a project file from the same directory as
itself, "/." would be appended to the path, which is obviously not useful.

webkit does some unholy tricks with the ordering of qmake and make
invocations, so it does not work with qmake -r. to make it still
possible to integrate it into the qt5 aggregator project, give it a
chance to "break out" from the recursion.

otherwise a cache/config in an aggregator project may unduly hide the
mkspecs/ of the aggregated project from qmake's view.

qmake will now look for .qmake.super, just like it looks for .qmake.cache,
and the cache() function has a mode to write this super cache.
this allows the creation of aggregator projects like, say, qt5.
a notable difference to the normal cache is that this file is *not* added
as a dependency of the Makefile. this means that modifications done by
later sub-projects will not cause a re-processing of earlier projects, and
consequently that one should be cautious regarding what information to
store there.
another notable difference is that this file is read *before* the spec,
so the spec can use the variables from the cache without resorting to
$$fromfile() & co.

this is the source dir equivalent of .qmake.cache and can be checked
into the repository. it can be used to make project-wide settings, or
just to signal the presence of an mkspecs/ directory.

this allows the creation of aggregator projects, like, say, qt5.
this is not expected to have a negative impact, as no project could
reasonably expect a nested .qmake.cache to *not* take effect - in fact,
if the project was processed stand-alone, it would already use it.
