Introduce qmake RC_DEFINES for RC preprocessor defines
qmake win32 generators by default used values of DEFINES for RC preprocessor defines, too. For simple defines this works. For string literals this failed for the .vcxproj files: DEFINES += "FOO=\"BAR BAR\"" works for CL but fails for RC. DEFINES += "FOO=\\\"BAR BAR\\\"" works for RC but fails for CL. This patch introduces the qmake variable RC_DEFINES. The variable contains the preprocessor defines, that are used for RC. If the varible is not set, the DEFINES values are used for RC. Task-number: QTBUG-44184 Change-Id: I4202271759d29de8c1829347ae3ef117eda54b38 Reviewed-by: Oswald Buddenhagen <oswald.buddenhagen@theqtcompany.com>
