Global variables with names such as "CurrentProject*", "CurrentKit*" etc
are harmful, because the term "current project" as used in Qt Creator
does not refer to the "active project", but simply stands for the
project that contains the node that is currently selected in the project
tree, which in turn may or may not correspond to the current editor
document, depending on the "sync with editor" setting. In other words,
the "current project" is almost a random value with little meaning
outside the project tree itself.
Therefore, we remove "CurrentProject*" and friends, except the ones that
are currently intentionally in use. The latter get renamed to
"CurrentDocument:Project*", so their purpose becomes clear. Their old
names are kept around for backward compatibility, but are not suggested
by the variable chooser anymore, so new usages are unlikely and we can
remove them at some point.
We also add some ActiveProject* variants that have been requested in the
past.
Also remove the "CurrentSession" prefix that was deprecated six years
ago.

... or Target.
This patch moves build system from conceptually "one per project"
to "one per target (i.e. per project-and-kit)" or "per
BuildConfigurations" for targets where the builds differ
significantly.
Building requires usually items from the kit (Qt version, compiler,
...) so a target-agnostic build is practically almost always wrong.
Moving the build system to the target also has the potential
to solve issues caused by switching targets while parsing, that
used Project::activeTarget() regularly, with potentially different
results before and after the switch.
This patch might create performance/size regressions when several
targets are set up per project as the build system implementation's
internal data are duplicated in this case.
The idea is to fix that by sharing per-project pieces again in
the project implementation once these problems occur.

The aspects now only announce sub-widgets they like to add,
actuall positioning is does by a new LayoutBuilder class,
also cramming several widgets in an hbox in the right column
of the QFormLayout is done there.
