Added all build* subfolders to .gitignore

This fix seems to have introduced a regression when _this is deleted before the lambda slot occurred, for example deleting the DockManager (and consequently _this) immediately after the execution of updateTabs function (we encountered this problem in linux)

+### Drag & Drop to Auto-Hide
+
+You can easily drag any dock widget or any floating widget to the
+borders of a window to pin it as a auto-hide tab in one of the 4 sidebars.
+If you drag a dock widget close the one of the four window borders, special
+drop overlays will be shown to indicate the drop area for auto-hide widgets:
