In cases like `C:\` or `C:\D\E F G\`, we had the issue were Windows'
path separator was acting as an escape and was corrupting configure
arguments', so, we were ending up with `-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=C`, or
were cutting the argument list short, and ended up ignoring some of the
arguments.

In addition to the fix, I've removed some legacy codes in the
`configure` file and delegated most of the work to
the `QtWriteArgsFile.cmake` which was being used by `configure.bat`. I
am not sure how this was supposed to work before since it was not really
working, but now, `config.opt` lives in the build directory, together
with `config.opt.in` (a template file), and the `config.redo` (and
`config.redo.in`) which holds the full redo command. The template files
are being used to preserve the quoted variables and to help
QtWriteArgFiles process the opt files more consistency.
Also fixed an issue on Unix, where ./configure was failing to run if
its path contained spaces, e.g., `Qt Src/qt5/configure`.

Needed for subsequent change that will check and error out if the
version is lower than 3.16. We do that to ensure all policies
introduced by CMake up to version 3.16 have their behavior set to
NEW.

This is a preparation for adding the -help argument to
qt-configure-module.bat.
Consider the call
qt-configure-module.bat path/to/qt-module -help
Internally, we called
cmake ... -P .../QtWriteArgsFile.cmake path/to/qt-module -help
which was supposed to separate the arguments and write them into
config.opt.
However, passing arbitrary arguments after "-P script.cmake" only worked
by accident and is not supported. As soon as arguments are passed that
are valid CMake arguments, like -help or -G, the CMake call would fail.
Now, we let configure.bat and qt-configure-module.bat write the
arguments as is into config.opt.in and let QtWriteArgsFile.cmake read
this file, separate the arguments and write config.opt.

We must write config.opt in the same directory we're reading it from.
We must not write the -top-level argument to config.opt.

Passing arguments with equal signs was broken for configure.bat and
qt-configure-module.bat. An argument FOO=BAR was split at = and written
as
FOO
BAR
to config.opt, breaking every attempt of assigning CMake variables.
We must not iterate over %* in batch files to avoid splitting arguments
at equal signs. Instead, pass %* unmodified to a CMake script that
writes config.opt.
