Bitcoin-Qt (Windows only): add version info to Resource File

- add version information to bitcoin-qt.rc, which is displayed on Windows, when looking in the executable properties and selecting "Details"
- introduce a new clientversion.h (used in bitcoin-qt.rc to generate
  version information), which takes only the version defines from
  version.h and is included in it (to allow usage with the windres rc-file
  compiler)
- move #define STRINGIFY(s) #s into clientversion.h as that is used in
  bitcoin-qt.rc and rename to DO_STRINGIZE(X)
- add #define STRINGIZE(X) DO_STRINGIZE(X), which is needed to convert the
  version defines into a version string in the rc-file
- this ensures we only need to update 1 file and have bitcoin-qt.exe
  version information

- for RC-file documentation see:
