Opening the console- or the debug-window (info tab) seems to be a action that many users do often. This PR adds a shortcut for opening the debug window (shift-ctrl-D) and one for showing directly the console (shift-ctrl-C). Considered to be a undocumented expert feature.

This looks weird, allocating a freely-floating object, but I do think it is correct. The object will become a child of *this, and automatically freed with it.

Right. It looks a bit strange. But i think it should compile fine and leaves no men-leak (and requires less code).

@paveljanik the problem with a parameter for showDebugWindow() is, that binding a parameter to a signal is non-trivial (requires a QSignalMapper) and result in a uncommon code. I have considered that but was going for the more clear way which not really involves more code line (maybe +2).

I have testes it on OSX. QT automaps the OSX-cmd key to ctrl. Needs testing on Linux/Windows.

Hah, would be awesome if someone wrote a manual/help function for the GUI in the first place...
