CMake: Allow excluding tools and apps from the default 'all' target
Qt uses the qtNomakeTools() function to mark a directory which will not be built as part of the default target. This is especially important when cross-compiling (to iOS for example) because the build process might fail. The condition for not building these "GUI tool sub-directory projects" is the absence of the "tools" value in qmake's QT_BUILD_PARTS variable. Introduce a QT_NO_MAKE_TOOLS CMake variable. If the value is true, it's equivalent to "tools" not being present in QT_BUILD_PARTS. Introduce qt_exclude_tool_directories_from_default_target(). It's the qmake counter part to qtNomakeTools(). Teach pro2cmake to generate it where appropriate.
