Use depfile to control ABI-specific builds of executable targets

qt_internal_${target}_copy_apk_dependencies should use CMake DEPFILE
approach when it's possible. Since we don't have any specific
artifact that androiddeployqt can produce when collecting dependencies
this change adds simple timestamp file that is touched each time when
androiddeployqt is running. The timestamp is used then as a file-level
dependency for the qt_internal_${target}_copy_apk_dependencies target.
