This PR does the following
* use `qmake` in addition to autotools and cmake to build C++ lib
* introduce blocking variant of Qt based transport
The motivation was to use blocking transport on android. The existing
solution for this is to build TSocket for Android using CMake. While I agree
that qmake is much more easier to build for android, it's only because CMake is
not that easy to use for android cross compilation.
