Before this change, the qt_lib_foo_private .pri files contained
absolute paths to libraries, e.g.
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcups.so
Whereas the qmake build instead embeds link flags like -lcups.
Detect absolute library file paths, and transform them into link
flags. This should make the .pri files relocatable.
Fix the add_custom_commands to have the scripts as dependencies.
Make sure to pass the suffix, prefix and other options to the
qconfig.pri generation command as well.
Also reverse the order of the link flags, to mirror the order
that qmake generates for .pri files.

qmake_use.prf understands the _DEBUG and _RELEASE suffixes for
QMAKE_LIBS_XXX entries. The CMake configuration "Debug" is considered
for the _DEBUG entries, "Release" and "RelWithDebInfo" for _RELEASE.
The qt_lib_XXX_private.pri files are now generated in multiple steps:
1. The QT_LIBS_XXX information is generated per $<CONFIG> and written to
.cmake files.
2. A preliminary qt_lib_XXX_private.pri file is generated, containing
only configuration-independent data.
3. A custom command runs the QtGenerateLibPri.cmake script that combines
the files from step 1 and 2 into the final qt_lib_XXX_private.pri
file.
The same is done for mkspecs/qmodule.pri.
To be able to trigger custom commands from header modules, which are
interface libraries, we introduce one XXX_timestamp ALL target per
header module that creates a timestamp file. To that XXX_timestamp
target we add the pri file generation target as dependency.
