Description:
Adding a watch expression in the debugger crashes the IDE. This is majorly disruptive to many debugging workflows.

Additional info:
* package version: qtcreator 6.0.2-2
* upstream bug report: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-26989

Steps to reproduce:
1. Set a breakpoint.
2. Run a program through the debugger until it hits the breakpoint.
3. Right-click on the Expressions tab and add a new expression.
4. Shortly after hitting "OK" to confirm adding the expression, Qt Creator will crash.

Attached is a patch to fix the bug. This has been reviewed and will be included in the 7.0 release in late March.
