[Bug 1172844] [NEW] xdg-open should probably open file in existing qtcreator instance

[Michael Thayer]

Public bug reported:

When I execute "xdg-open" from the command line on a C++ source file
that file gets opened in a new instance of qtcreator, even if one is
already running.  It might make sense to open the file in an existing
instance ("qtcreator -client").  Feel free to close this as "won't fix"
if you disagree.
