MSVC requires that the C PCH file is compiled (as an object) and linked if
any C file is found, and the same for C++.
Most qmake projects are C++.
If a C++ project has a precompiled header, it is typically of C++ type, and
cannot be compiled as C (for example, it contains or includes classes).
Since there is no easy way to conditionally build the C PCH file only if C
files are found in the project (as done for g++), we need a setting that is
disabled by default.
This amends 30331afda1.
[ChangeLog][Tools][qmake] Introduced precompile_header_c CONFIG option for
MSVC to enable precompiled header for C sources.

Linking with too many object files could lead to "LNK1170: line in
command file contains 131071 or more characters". Do not write all .obj
files into one line but respect a limit of 1000 characters. If the limit
is reached the object files are separated by newlines instead of spaces.

Qt copyrights are now in The Qt Company, so we could update the source
code headers accordingly. In the same go we should also fix the links to
point to qt.io.
Outdated header.LGPL removed (use header.LGPL21 instead)
Old header.LGPL3 renamed to header.LGPL3-COMM to match actual licensing
combination. New header.LGPL-COMM taken in the use file which were
using old header.LGPL3 (src/plugins/platforms/android/extract.cpp)
Added new header.LGPL3 containing Commercial + LGPLv3 + GPLv2 license
combination

When there are source files with the same file name in different
directories of the project, then nmake's inference rules might pick up
the wrong source file. Note that this even happens when only one of those
files is in SOURCES. The existence of conflicting file names is enough
to cause hard-to-find build failures.
The usual work-around for this situation is CONFIG+=no_batch.
This is now done automatically when a conflict situation is detected and
a warning message is printed.

Since VS 2012 the linker supports the /MANIFEST:embed option, which can
be used to embed the automatically generated manifest without calling
mt.exe. Using this feature simplifies our generated makefiles, esp. in
the case of incremental linking.

When embedding manifests we modified the EXE/DLL after linking using
the manifest tool. This breaks the incremental linking feature of MSVC.
The MS way to embed a manifest without breaking incremental linking is:
- let the linker create the manifest file,
- create a resource that contains the manifest file,
- invoke the linker again to embed the resource.
The embed_manifest_{exe|dll}.prf files have been removed.
All manifest logic is now in qmake's nmake makefile generator.
With QMAKE_MANIFEST one can specify a custom manifest file that gets
embedded without disturbing incremental linking.
