3. Add new config for run in Qt Creator and set `plasmoidviewer` (or `plasmawindowed`)
as executable
4. In execution environment, set
* `QT_PLUGIN_PATH` to directory containing plugin `\*.so`-file
* `QT_PLUGIN_PATH` to `$BUILD_DIR/plasmoid/lib` which should be containing the plugin
for the Plasmoid under `plasma/applets/libsyncthingplasmoid.so`
* `QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS` to 1 for verbose plugin detection
* `HOME` to the test directory from step 2 so plasmoidviewer finds the Plasmoid
in the test directory

enabled.
For Arch Linux, I created the package
[`plasma-sdk-debug`](https://github.com/Martchus/PKGBUILDs/tree/master/plasma-sdk/debug)
for that purpose. Installing this package (replacing `plasma-sdk`) should make enabling
QML debugging in the *Run* section of Qt Creator work.
[`plasmoidviewer-debug`](https://github.com/Martchus/PKGBUILDs/tree/master/plasmoidviewer-debug/default)
for that purpose. Installing this package and using `plasmoidviewer-debug` instead of `plasmoidviewer`
should make enabling QML debugging in the *Run* section of Qt Creator work.
To create a debug build of `plasmoidviewer` manually:
1. Get plasma-sdk: `git clone https://anongit.kde.org/plasma-sdk.git`
2. Create a debug build of `plasmoidviewer` and ensure `QT_QML_DEBUG` is defined when
compiling `plasmoidviewer`, eg. by applying

3. Prepend the build directory containing the `plasmoidviewer` binary to the path variable
in the build environment of Syncthing Tray.
4. Enable QML debugging in the *Run* section.
