[Qt-interest] create link with keys in Windows

[Constantin Makshin]

QFile::link() function creates symbolic links (speaking in terms of  
Unix-like systems) and Windows shortcuts is only a more or less equal  
solution. And since symbolic links don't support command line arguments  
(they are simply "the same file with different name"), QFile::link()  
doesn't support them either.

So you'll have to rely on native API to create such shortcuts/links.
