Doc: Document how to treat qt_add_big_resources args as source files
The arguments to qt_add_big_resources are not known to CMake as source
files.
They need to be added explicitly to a CMake target in order for Qt Creator
to treat them as source files and in the case of a qrc file to expand
the contents in the project view.
Fixes: QTBUG-104320
