Description
Qt 6.0 are using cmake by default, and cmake have better support for qt now.
For debugging with QString and other Qt object, we need visualizerFile for debugger,
so we need automatically specify the visualizerFile automatically when the project are depends on Qt
Contributor guide
Research direction
No files or tests are named in the issue. Start by locating CMake Tools' Qt dependency detection and debugger configuration handling, then determine how a Qt-dependent project could receive a visualizerFile automatically. Done means Qt projects expose QString and other Qt objects correctly during debugging without manual configuration.
