this makes it fully consistent with INSTALLS.
note that this also removes the file name from the target path when
copying files, also for consistency.

- QMAKE_FILE_IN_EXT as an alias for QMAKE_FILE_EXT, for consistency with
QMAKE_FILE_IN_BASE
- QMAKE_FILE_IN_NAME to make pairing _EXT/_BASE to get a full name
unnecessary (finally ...), and make use of it
- QMAKE_FILE_OUT_PATH, because i'll need it

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.
