qmake: Print proper error if no .pro file could be detected

When passing a directory to qmake, it tries to detect a .pro file in
that directory.  Whenever the detection failed, qmake printed an error
message like "Access is denied." or "file to open is a directory".

Now, qmake prints an actually helpful error message:

    ***Cannot detect .pro file in directory '../foo'.

    QMake expects the file '../foo/foo.pro' or exactly one .pro file in
    the given directory.
