Import Pacpus project into Qt Creator

To import a Pacpus project, open the CMakeList.txt file in Qt Creator. Choose the default Desktop configuration and specify a build directory and hit the "Configure Project" button.

If the environment variable PACPUS_ROOT is not set, you have to do it manually. In the "Projects" window, you can manually add variables to the system environment.
