I've uploaded a new version:

- Now out-of-source project files are supported (for cmake projects).
   There will be two new files in the build folder CMake.qtcreator and CMakeLists.txt.user
   CMake.qtcreator should be opened with creator.

- out-of-source is default, could be changed by a check box in the wizard

- shipped ninja.exe (>1.0.0) is found automatically

- generators are updated when cmake is selected in the wizard

- a cmake warning about QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE could be suppressed when the project doesn't use Qt
