Autogen: Ignore not existing source files in cmMakefile

Until CMake 3.10 a list of source files that had the AUTOUIC_OPTIONS property
populated was kept in `cmMakefile::QtUiFilesWithOptions`.  In the process to
remove all AUTOUIC related code from `cmMakefile` for CMake 3.10, the pre
filtered list was replaced by a loop in `cmQtAutoGeneratorInitializer` over
all source files in the `cmMakefile`.  This loop introduced the problem that
file paths were computed for source files that weren't in the target's sources
and that might not even have existed.  If the path for an unused and not
existing file was computed a `cmake::FATAL_ERROR` with the error message
"Cannot find source file:" was thrown nevertheless.
This caused some projects to fail in CMake 3.10.

This patch adds a test for path errors in the loops in
`cmQtAutoGeneratorInitializer` that iterate over all source files in a
`cmMakefile`. If a path error appears, the file is silently ignored.
If the file is part of the target's sources, the path error will still be
caught in the loop over all the target's sources.

Closes #17573
Closes #17589
