Generating QDawg files with qdawggen

The qdawggen tool is provided to convert word list files into the qdawg format used by the QDawg class used by input methods and other vocabulary-based functionality. While Qt Extended will do this automatically if a QDawg is requested and a ".words" file exists with no corresponding ".dawg" file, the process may require large amounts of RAM not available on the target device, therefore normally the ".dawg" files are generated off-device in the image building process.

The Qt Extended build process uses qdawggen to make dawg files for each file in the etc/dict/LANG directory, for all languages being built.
