Previously if Qt was configured with -developer-build, configure
would pass to CMake -DINPUT_developer_build=ON, which will ensure that
both FEATURE_developer_build and QT_FEATURE_developer_build are set to
ON.
Then if somebody tries to toggle FEATURE_developer_build to OFF in
the CMakeCache.txt and rerun cmake, the feature will bounce back to ON,
due to the code in QtSetup.cmake that doesn't take into account if
FEATURE_developer_build is already defined, and thus reset it based
on the value that is cached in INPUT_developer_build.
Change the checks for INPUT_developer_build and INPUT_no_prefix,
to take into account the defined-ness of their
FEATURE_ counterparts.
If they are defined, ignore the INPUT_ values.
This allows toggling the FEATURE_ variables and also aligns with
the INPUT_ handling behavior that we have in qt_evaluate_feature which
ignores INPUT_ values once the FEATURE_ is defined.
While this aligns the behavior with other features, there is still a
problem.
If you first configure without -developer-build,
and FEATURE_developer_build is set OFF, and then reconfigure with
-developer-build, because FEATURE_developer_build is already defined,
the INPUT_developer_build=ON is ignored.
This is a problem for other features as well and will be handled in a
follow up change.
