The Qt Visual Studio Add-In version 1.2.1 contains multiple bugfixes and
improvements.

Changes
-------
- Qt 5.0.1 help documents included
- Qmake wrapper COM component removed and replaced with command line tool
  qmakefilereader to avoid need to load Qt5 library binaries to Visual Studio

  Also if Qt4 add-in is present in system, default editor values for .ts, .ui
  and .qrc file types are not permanently overwritten by Qt5 add-in. Values are
  written when Qt5 add-in loads and Qt4 values are set when Qt5 add-in unloads.
  This should make it possible to install and use both Qt4 and Qt5 versions of
  add-in. Not to use same time but in turns. Though user must be careful what he
  does.
