Autogen: Add AUTO(MOC|RCC|UIC)_EXECUTABLE target properties
Allow to force moc/rcc/uic compiler used for AUTO(MOC|RCC|UIC). Setting these properties is only necessary if you are going to do strange things like build these tools as part of your own build system. Setting these properties will also prevent cmake from testing the binary: It is user-provided and assumed to be valid.

+AUTO*_EXECUTABLE
+----------------
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC_EXECUTABLE`, :prop_tgt:`AUTORCC_EXECUTABLE` and
+ :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC_EXECUTABLE` target properties all take a path to an
+ executable and force automoc/autorcc/autouic to use this executable.
+
+ Setting these will also prevent the configure time testing for these
+ executables. This is mainly useful when you build these tools yourself.
