qmake: fix hypothetical raw data leak in $$replace()

the replacement value may well constitute the whole output string - this
is in fact common, given this rather typical usage pattern:

  BAR = $$replace(FOO, -flag, -otherflag)

this must be considered when constructing the return value.
compare 3c8134958c6.

as of now, this is irrelevant, as QString::replace(QRegExp, QString) will
always memcpy the replacement into a detached copy of the target, but one
never knows.
