Add automatic rcc invocation for Qt.

This replaces the need to invoke qt4_add_resources by allowing
adding the source .qrc file directly to the target sources.

+Additional options for rcc when using autorcc (see the :prop_tgt:`AUTORCC` target
+property)
+
+This property holds additional command line options which will be used when
+rcc is executed during the build via autorcc, i.e. it is equivalent to the
+optional OPTIONS argument of the qt4_add_resources() macro.
+
+By default it is empty.
+
+The options set on the .qrc source file may override :prop_tgt:`AUTORCC_OPTIONS` set
+on the target.

+AUTORCC
+-------
+
+Should the target be processed with autorcc (for Qt projects).
+
+AUTORCC is a boolean specifying whether CMake will handle
+the Qt rcc code generator automatically, i.e. without having to use
+the QT4_ADD_RESOURCES() or QT5_ADD_RESOURCES() macro. Currently Qt4 and Qt5 are
+supported.
+
+When this property is set to TRUE, CMake will handle .qrc files added
+as target sources at build time and invoke rcc accordingly.
+This property is initialized by the value of the :variable:`CMAKE_AUTORCC`
+variable if it is set when a target is created.
+
+Additional command line options for rcc can be set via the
+:prop_sf:`AUTORCC_OPTIONS` source file property on the .qrc file.
+
+The global property :prop_gbl:`AUTOGEN_TARGETS_FOLDER` can be used to group the
+autouic targets together in an IDE, e.g. in MSVS.
