this adds file_copies.prf, which understands the variable COPIES, which
works analogously to INSTALLS.
i've been holding this off for a long time, as it is not without
caveats. however, similar hacks are proliferating all over the code
base, so it's time we formalized it.
in fact, it's the easiest way to fix some nasty shadow build problems,
which is why i'm adding this on the stable branch.

Instead of lumping both Objective-C (.m) and Objective-C++ (.mm) sources
into the same pile, passing them on to the same compiler as for C++ (CXX),
with the C++ flags (CXXFLAGS), we follow Apple's lead and treat them as
variants of the C and C++ languages separately, so that Objective-C
sources are built with CC and with CFLAGS, and Objective-C++ sources
with CXX, and CXXFLAGS.
This lets us remove a lot of duplicated flags and definitions from the
QMAKE_OBJECTIVE_CFLAGS variable, which in 99% of the cases just matched
the C++ equivalent. The remaining Objective-C/C++ flags are added to
CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS, as the compiler will just ignore them when running in
C/C++ mode. This matches Xcode, which also doesn't have a separate build
setting for Objective-C/C++ flags.
The Makefile qmake generator has been rewritten to support Objective-C/C++
fully, by not assuming that we're just iterating over the C and C++
extensions when dealing with compilation rules, precompiled headers, etc.
There's some duplicated logic in this code, as inherent by qmake's already
duplicated code paths, but this can be cleaned up when C++11 support is
mandatory and we can use lambda functions.

automatically append the .exe extension. this is done unconditionally,
which means that providing it in the spec is wrong by definition.
don't use system("which") (which won't do what we want in a windows
shell), but scan PATH ourselves. as a bonus, this is also faster.
to avoid fetching and splitting the path multiple times, factor out a
function in spec_pre.prf.

"CONFIG += qt warn_on release link_prl" is in every single spec (though
for link_prl there is one genuine exception and two apparent omissions).

there is no reason whatsoever to duplicate this so many times, and even
less reason to have specs with a deviating default.

this is cleaner by design and allows removing some hacks.
