[Qt-creator] Tab UI in Projects mode to TreeView

[Ariel Molina]

Wow, that's a really non intuitive option!  That helps on selecting Desktop
and Remote, but it was not really a problem as I can easily switch that. It
does not solve the problem of which host to target.

When choosing the target remote host, I have many identical devices, and
very often a single unique device gets a different IP because they use
DHCP, so im forced to create dozens of identical kits only changing the IP
address, there's a lot of time wasted. Time is wasted, because the only
options are: 1) create a new kit, 2) switch the device in the kit, or 3)
rebuilding. Me, being an obsessive, measured time in clicking all the
options and just rebuilding, for me is about the same time (and it's also
annoying).

This would help a lot, at the end just select the remote device:

It is similar to the Android-style which is already in place, and it might
be a generalization to apply for iOS too.
