Note that this technically breaks backwards compatibility, as relative
paths were previously silently resolved against $$_PRO_FILE_PWD_. This

the new hack escapes the backslash with another backslash, which appears
to work. however, make does *not* remove the additional backslash, so
the result is a bit ugly.

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.

first, store the library's full name in the .prl file, like we do on
unix. this is not expected to have any side effects, as QMAKE_PRL_TARGET
was entirely unused under windows so far.
then, rewrite the mingw library handling: instead of letting the linker
resolve the actual libraries, do it ourselves like we do for msvc. we
could not do that before due to the partial file names in the .prl
files: if the library didn't exist at qmake execution time, we'd have to
guess the file extension (the msvc generators never had that problem, as
they know about only one possible extension for libraries anyway).
make use of processPrlFile()'s ability to replace the reference to
the .prl file with the actual library. that way we don't need to
re-assemble the file name from pieces, which was fragile and
inefficient.
QMAKE_*_VERSION_OVERRIDE does not affect libraries coming with .prl
files any more. additionally, it is now used literally (not
numerically), and values less or equal to zero lost their special
meaning as "none" - this isn't a problem, because that's the default
anyway, and there is no need to override bogus versions from .prl files
any more.
no changelog for that, as i found no public traces of that feature
outside qtbase.

the assumption is that if somebody bothers to actually specify a file
name, they'll most probably go all the way to specify the *correct* file
name. otherwise, they'll use -L/-l flags to specify the libs in a
cross-platform way and rely on qmake's magic.
this code was initially added for the purpose of invoking
findHighestVersion() under windows. this has been off by default for a
while now.
at some point, the code did also swap qt for qt-mt and vice versa if the
specified one was missing. this is obviously gone for a while as well.
the unix code was pretty much broken since day one: there was a regex
match on lib<stub>.* against <stub> itself, which obviously could not
have ever succeeded. consequently, the subsequent code ran into a path
that tried the file name with a trailing dot (instead of a new
extension), which never produced anything meaningful.

On OS X with a framework-based build of Qt, the 'Libs:' line of the
.pc files generated by `qmake` references the framework. This requires
two separate arguments to the linker: The fixed string '-framework' and
the name of the framework (e.g. 'QtCore'). Only the latter might need
quoting. Prior to this fix, they were treated as a single argument (e.g.
'-framework QtCore'), thus always quoted because of the contained space,
and later lead to errors when trying to link a Qt framework discovered
via `pkg-config`.
