Introduce module providers
If a dependency is not found, we now search for a matching module
provider that can generate one for us.
We also provide a generic fall-back provider which uses pkg-config to
locate the dependency (but could be extended to incorporate other
methods in the future). This is the most important part of this change
for practical purposes, as it makes hundreds of popular libraries
available for use in qbs projects without users having to write any
boilerplate code.
In a future patch, a module provider could also be used to implement the
functionality of the qtprofilesetup library, relieving users of the need
to create a profile for building Qt applications.
[ChangeLog] The Depends item now falls back to pkg-config to locate
dependencies whose names do not correspond to a qbs module.
Fixes: QBS-1107
