A couple of tooltips in Qt Creator, contain rich text (HTML). These
tooltips tend to have line breaks in unfavorable places, making the
content sometimes hard to read.
This is fixed in this change by using: style="white-space:pre"
Another issue with some tooltips is that they show key/value definitions
in a <table>, which, especially with longer keys makes looking up the
value quite hard. Also the length of the key column is dependent on the
(translated) content.
This change implements an alternative: using "description lists" <dl>,
which indent the values nicely independent from the key length.

Previously all values coming from "Batch Edit..." would be considered
as user changed values and be displayed with bold font.
This means that if I had -DMY_VAR:BOOL=ON and do a Copy and paste
in "Batch Edit..." I would have it displayed as user changed and
it would be passed to CMake as changed value.
Also it should be possible to start with -DMY_VAR:BOOL=ON, click
the check box to make it OFF and then do a "Batch Edit..." with
-DMY_VAR:BOOL=ON to set the value back to original value.

The CMake parameters QTreeView has now:
- alternating row colors
- row selection
Both key and value get the same font and foreground stylings.
- bold when the key is new or the value has been changed by user
- italic when the key has been inherited from kit or initial config
- red when there are differences between the inherited value and
the current value

The flush there was as a "hack" for the case:
1. failed initial configuration (CMAKE_GENERATOR as Ninja2)
2. successful configuration
The current configuration would get current items with unexpanded
values e.g.: QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:STRING=%{Qt:qmakeExecutable}
But flush also removed the expanded values of the selected
initial parameters from CMakeBuildSystem::updateInitialCMakeExpandableVars
This is useful when CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER changes or
CMAKE_PROJECT_INCLUDE_BEFORE gets a new path to the new Qt Creator.
