CMake: Fix resource object file paths in prl files for prefix builds

Before this change, the prl files always assumed that resource object
files are installed into $qt_prefix/lib when doing a prefix build.
That was true for qt_internal_add_resource calls, but not for
qt6_add_qml_module and qt6_target_qml_files.

Change qt_internal_record_rcc_object_files to take a new required
INSTALL_LOCATION argument. The argument takes a path relative
to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.

Modify __qt_propagate_generated_resource to save the relative path of
the generated resource source file, which will be used in the
computation of the final resource object file location.
This is needed because the Qml resource functions place the source
files in a different directory layout, e.g. .rcc vs .qmlcache

Modify qt_generate_prl_file to prepend $$[QT_INSTALL_PREFIX]/
instead of $$[QT_INSTALL_LIBS]/ for the resource install paths.

A follow up patch is done in qtdeclarative to pass the new
INSTALL_LOCATION argument from the Qml CMake functions.
