[Qtce-preview-feedback] MAKEFILE_GENERATOR value

Hi,

All mkspecs files dedicated to msvc2005 use MSVC.NET as
value of the MAKEFILE_GENERATOR. I'm not sure, but is this correct?

The comment in those files says "Written for Microsoft VC2005.NET",
but this is not correct name of the compiler nor the studio.
Since Visual Sudio 2005, the .NET mnemonic has been removed completely.
So, the names are Visual Studio 2005 and Visual C++ 2005 (compiler 
version 8.0).

The same change applies to version of Windows CE platform:
Windows CE 4.x .NET
but later we have
Windows CE 5.0
without .NET.

.NET suffix was used only once for group of products released in 2005,
later it was removed.

I'm not sure but perhaps this value may influence content of generated 
files.
