Subject: Pro-file level support for importing plugins for static Qt builds

Platform plugin is needed always when gui is linked to an application.
This is tedious to do manually for static builds, so provide support
for generating a source file that imports static plugins for
application projects.

"CONFIG += import_plugins" statement in application .pro file will
generate required import statements for all plugins specified with
QTPLUGIN variable.

The plugin class names are found from plugin's module pri generated
automatically when plugin is built, as long as the plugin specifies
the PLUGIN_CLASS_NAME in the plugin .pro file before loading
qt_plugin.prf.

Task-number: QTBUG-28131
