Title:
  Make it easier to debug C++ apps with a Debug build config

Status in “qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Right now, if I create a C++ project in Qt Creator, it can very easily
  be built. However, when I click on the Debug button, I'm welcomed with
  this dialog: http://i.imgur.com/OOKQ7bJ.png

  As a developer, if I want to debug my app, I'll have to:

  1. Go to the Projects tab
  2. Select a kit and its Default build config
  3. Clone the config
  4. Rename the target build directory
  5. Add the following to the CMake arguments:

  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug

  This could be easily solved by creating both a Default and a Debug
  build config (as the default Qt Creator qmake does, IIRC), so that
  developers only need to switch build configs to enable them to debug.
