Fix the detection of platform definitions directory

Platform definition directory is defined when building qtbase.
Depending on the build type (prefixed/non-prefixed) it should point:
  - To the source directory when building prefixed qtbase.
  - To the installation directory of the prefixed qtbase when building
consumer projects.
  - To the build directory of non-prefixed qtbase when building
non-prefixed qtbase or consumer projects.

TODO: It is desirable to move the logic asssociated with Qt platform
definition to the qt_internal_setup_public_platform_target function.

Pick-to: 6.1 6.2
Fixes: QTBUG-94973
