Description

KConfig now also compiles on Windows


the qt3support function QDir::convertSeparators no longer exists


remove dependency on unistd.h on Windows


fix linking of KSharedConfig on MSVC2012

Without disabling the copy constructor we get an undefined referece to
KConfig::KConfig(const KConfig&)

Testing
-------

This is a series of 4 small commits as one patch. I can squash them into one commit if that is preferred.

Everything compiles with VS2012 (64 bit). To get kconfig_compiler to generate the tests I had to add the Qt 5.2 beta binaries dir to PATH since that contains QtCore.dll, etc.

Test don't work due to Windows lacking rpath or LD_LIBRARY_PATH, i.e. the necessary libraries are not found.
I see two possible solutions: 
-CMake sets $PATH to include the needed libraries (have to make sure the newly compiled ones are before the installed ones)
-A wrapper executable sets the DLL search paths and then launches the tests

I don't have the time to solve that problem now, if anyone does:
