Added .condition modifier to SUBDIRS.

In Symbian, it is now possible to set certain subdirs to be built
only when specified define is true when bld.inf is parsed.

For example, compile a subdir only when building for emulator:

SUBDIRS += winscw_lib
winscw_lib.condition = WINSCW

Also improved SUBDIRS variable documentation; the modifiers were
completely undocumented.

+    It is possible to modify this default behavior of \c SUBDIRS by giving
+    additional modifiers to \c SUBDIRS elements. Supported modifiers are:
+
+    \table
+    \header \o Modifier \o Effect
+    \row \o .subdir     \o Use the specified subdirectory instead of \c SUBDIRS value.
+    \row \o .file       \o Specify the subproject \c pro file explicitly. Cannot be
+                        used in conjunction with \c .subdir modifier.
+    \row \o .condition  \o Specifies a \c bld.inf define that must be true for
+                        subproject to be built. Available only on Symbian platform.
+    \row \o .depends    \o This subproject depends on specified subproject.
+                        Available only on platforms that use makefiles.
+    \row \o .makefile   \o The makefile of subproject.
+                        Available only on platforms that use makefiles.
+    \row \o .target     \o Base string used for makefile targets related to this
+                        subproject.
+                        Available only on platforms that use makefiles.
+    \endtable
+
+    For example, define two subdirectories, both of which reside in a different directory
+    than the \c SUBDIRS value, and one of the subdirectories must be built before the other:

+    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qmake-manual.qdoc 149

+    For example, define a subdirectory that is only build for emulator builds in Qt for Symbian:

+    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qmake-manual.qdoc 150
