[cft-dev] PMC approval for CFT 1.1.0 RC4 for Oxygen RC4

[Nieraj Singh <nsingh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We had a last minute blocking bug uncovered during Oxygen RC3 testing of CFT 1.1.0 and it required an RC4 today with a fix.

The bug for it is here:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=518204

The problem here is an NPE that causes the UI in the Cloud server editor to not render, preventing users from managing the app which would be a blocking issue.

It doesn't seem to be a regression introduced by our code, but regardless, the problem is that the "Debug" button rendering throws an NPE because the debug launch configuration from JDT seems to return null in some cases. 

The fix is very simple and localised to just the check on the "Debug" button which ensures that the launch configuration obtained from JDT is not null.

We have the RC4 ready here with the fix, and we verified that the problem is solved:

If it is fine, we'll commit this RC4 to Oxygen SimRel tomorrow, which is the deadline for any last changes for Oxygen.
