Doc: Extend QMake's documentation of RC_FILE and RES_FILE
RC_FILE is not an internal variable that "rarely needs to be
modified". Mention that it's about Windows resources and link to the
corresponding section.
RES_FILE: Add link to RC_FILE and the more general section. Also
rephrase "compiled Windows resource file" to "Windows resource
compiler's output file" which is more precise.
Fixes: QTBUG-8709
