[Development] Dropping VS 2012 in Qt 5.7

[Gunnar Roth]

Well so be it, goodbye Qt from wec2013 Users. 
But who takes care that changes for wec2013 in 5.7 and dev are merged back to 5.6.x?
 
I know at least of

configure: Fix (Open)SSL detection on WinCE (Merged)[https://codereview.qt-project.org/122437]    
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/122437/

 
Fixing the SQLite3 build for WEC2013 again.
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/115571/5
 
 


furthermore wec2013 x86 needs at least 2 patches to build.
1. a problem with the fake  OleInitialize and OleUninitialize in qtbase\src\plugins\platforms\windows\qplatformfunctions_wince.h, probably due to calling convention.
2. bitscan intrinsic

and all programs using native file dialogs simply crash, qmlscene.exe for example.
