Add simple project generation based on existing source files

Introduce the qt-cmake-create script. The script generates the simple
CMakeLists.txt based on the source files located in the current or
specified directory. The initial version can generate a CMake code for
the following file types:
  - .c .cc .cpp .cxx .h .hh .hxx .hpp - generates the qt_add_executable
    call with prerequisites.
  - .qml .js .mjs - generates the qt_add_qml_module call with
    prerequisites.
  - .ui - adds the found ui files to the existing executable. Requires
    C++ files be present in the directory too.
  - .qrc - generates the qt_add_resources call and adds the resources
    to the existing executable. Requires C++ files be present in the
    directory too.
  - .proto - generates qt_add_protobuf call with prerequisites.

The QtInitProject.cmake script contains the 'handle_type' function that
allows extending the script capabilities and establish simple relation
chains between the file types.

Note: The initial implementation doesn't deal with sub-directories, so
all files from sub-directories will be added to and handled in the
top-level CMakeLists.txt file. This can be extended by user request.
