[Qt-creator] Configuration changes

[Kalinowski Maurice]

The Qt Simulator was aiming at Nokia based devices, afaik there weren't any other skins available.

As Symbian support has been removed and Harmattan/N9 is not actively developed anymore, we do not see much value in continuing the Qt Simulator right now.

In case you have some ideas/suggestions, feel free to contact us, either via JIRA or mailinglist.

BR,
Maurice
