[Qt-creator] Linked projects/workspace/'solutions'

[Coda Highland]

Embedding the framework in the application bundle is just a deployment
thing and won't make a significant difference in debugging.

In my application, I actually just used a bare .dylib instead of a
full framework bundle. I set up an "extra target" rule to copy the
library into the appropriate place in the bundle:
    install_interphraser.target =
tdbedit.app/Contents/Frameworks/libinterphraser.1.dylib
    install_interphraser.commands = \
        mkdir -p tdbedit.app/Contents/Frameworks/; \
        cp ../libinterphraser.1.dylib tdbedit.app/Contents/Frameworks/
    QMAKE_EXTRA_TARGETS += install_interphraser

    POST_TARGETDEPS += tdbedit.app/Contents/Frameworks/libinterphraser.1.dylib

I put this inside a macx {} block because this app is also built on
Linux and Windows. On Linux I use an rpath flag. Windows I haven't
figured out the "ideal" solution yet.

For frameworks I think I remember something about needing
install_name_tool to change the pathing.
