Implement support for DEPLOYMENT.display_name in Symbian
The default package name and the default name that appears in the application menu is derived from the TARGET variable. Often the default is not optimal for displaying to end user. To set a better display name for these purposes DEPLOYMENT.display_name variable can now be used. Cherry picked to 4.7 branch from master branch as part of QTBUG-15068, original commit: 9cb24d1c4b7359ec84708ba770050de720b50cdf Task-number: QTBUG-15068 Task-number: QTBUG-14280 Reviewed-by: Janne Anttila

On the Symbian platform, you can use \c{DEPLOYMENT.installer_header}
variable to generate smart installer wrapper for your application.
If you specify just UID of the installer package as the value, then
