User can use existing QDS project after taking 4.6 into use.

Users upgrade to later versions of the QDS. If they have created the project with QDS 4.4 or eariler, it has different structure for the Qmlproject thus resulting incompatible CMake exporter.

Bare minimum requirement: QDS tells the user project has been done with 4.4 or earlier when being opened ans points to Qt Wiki where the steps are defined.

Ideal: QDS can try to convert the existing QDS project to new structure. If it fails to do so, it will prompt this to the user.

Outcome:

QDS 4.6 => user can open previous project at ease and commence the CMake export.
