This ensures at compile-time that Qt libraries do not use any APIs that
are not safe for use in application extensions, and fixes warning

with this flag, when used in an application extension.
This is especially important on watchOS where *all* "applications" are
actually application extensions, and on other Apple platforms if
application extensions are developed using Qt.

the arguments after '--' are by definition meant only for the top-level

sub-projects just adds noise to the make output and misleads users.
note that this specifically does not support qmake -r, which will break

problem, because the qt build doesn't support qmake -r anyway.

turns out that just appending builtin-qt.conf isn't a good idea:
executable-editing tools (objcopy, prelink, etc.) will happily drop the
"attachment".
a safe method would be adding a proper section to the executable, but
there doesn't appear to be an objcopy equivalent in msvc, and using
entirely different methods of embedding the file with different
toolchains seems like a rather bad idea.
so instead go back to the old method of building qmake with a generated
qconfig.cpp. of course, as said file is now created by qmake itself, we
have to compile qlibraryinfo.cpp a second time, and link a second qmake
executable.

Since we can tell the MSVC version from the compiler now, each of the
qmake.conf files is now the same, so let's just have "win32-msvc" and be
future-proof. Likewise for win32-clang-msvc.
qplatformdefs.h was already common.
Since we can't obtain the MSVC version from the unified mkspec name any
more, I dropped the warning level during the qmake bootstrap to reduce
the number of warnings that need to be disabled from compiler version to
version.
There is no point in keeping the old mkspecs, but configure will re-map
the -platform argument to the unified spec as necessary, to keep
existing configure command lines working.
[ChangeLog][Visual Studio] Qt now has a common mkspec for all Visual
Studio versions, called "win32-msvc". The old names which contained the
version number are now gone (but qmake scopes based on the old names
continue to work). The version of the compiler can be obtained from the
MSC_VER and MSVC_VER variables (for example, for Visual Studio 2015,
those contain the values 1900 and 14.0, respectively). Those variables
are also available with the Intel compiler (win32-icc) and with Clang
(win32-clang-msvc).

this moves us another step towards the "outer" configure doing just
minimal bootstrapping of qmake.
a challenge here was that so far, qmake itself needed qconfig.cpp. this
was replaced by usage of a qt.conf file instead of compiled-in values.
however, to make the executable still self-contained, that qt.conf is
embedded into it (by simple appending of a fixed signature and the text
file).
the qmake with the embedded qt.conf is not used for the qt build itself,
which instead relies on the qt.conf in bin/ as before. however, due to
the missing built-in values, this file now needs to contain more
information than before. but except for a minimal version that is needed
to start up qmake/configure at all, that file is now also generated with
qmake. as some of the newly set up properties are subsequently used by
configure itself, qmake gains a (deliberately undocumented) function to
reload the qt.conf after it's fully populated.
unlike the old implementations, this one doesn't emit redundant qt.conf
entries which match the hard-coded fallbacks. omitting them leads to
leaner files which are more comprehensible.

For QMAKE_EXTRA_COMPILERS with inputs that are "buildable" (e.g. C++
sources) the custom build step is added to the output file. From Visual
Studio's point of view this looks like a circular dependency (e.g.
foo.moc generates foo.moc). Usually this just prints a warning that can
be ignored. But this circular dependency also breaks dependencies
between custom build steps. This became noticeable when the generation of
moc_predefs.h was added. Generating moc_predefs.h must be done before
any moc custom build step is executed.
This patch fixes the issue by using fake files (output file plus suffix
".cbt" for "custom build tool") that act as dummy inputs for the custom
build tools.
