[Qt-creator] Dev: Feature freeze for Qt Creator 17

[Eike Ziller]

Qt Creator 17 is now in feature freeze.

I have created the 17.0 branch(es). Please help bugfixing and stabilizing the branch there. Changes in the 17.0 branch will be merged to master branch regularly.
The 'master' branch is in lock-down for a few days, so everyone has time to become aware that the 17.0 branch is now the default target for bugfixes. Please hold back feature development for the 'master' branch (future Qt Creator 18.0) for that time.

If you have existing changes on codereview that target master branch but should go into 17.0 branch, please use "Move change" from the vertical "..." menu to the upper right in Gerrit.

Br, Eike
