[Qt-creator] indent preprocessor directives

All:

  We just ran into an interesting situation that's
  apropos to this discussion.

  We're still running Qt 4.6.2 and we just discovered
  that the Qt moc only handles #ifdef directives if
  they appear in column 1! One of our engineers indented
  his #ifdef directive to line up with the prevailing
  code indent level and the meta-object compiler blithely
  included in the produced moc references to code that
  the C++ compiler was correctly excluding everywhere
  else. The result, of course, was a failure to link.

  I wonder if this has been fixed in the current moc?

There is no such thing as an "appropriate" way to indent directives :
It is sometimes a matter of style or context, but more importantly,
for many projects, it is defined in the project's guidelines for
developers.

As a consequence, there is one and one only good solution for Creator
: Let developers pick what they prefer, or whatever it is that they
are ordered to do.

Ideally, let developers define their preferences, within the C++ code
style options, on a project per project basis.
