"Configuring project" infinite loop

[mpusz]

Brief Issue Summary

Selecting a kit on a project without CMakeLists.txt opens:

When the CMakeLists.txt is manually added to a subdirectory in a project and selected with "Locate", the "Configuring project: Saving open files" message is not closed and remains in an infinite loop. This loop prevents CMake extension to work correctly. "CMake: Reset CMake Tools Extension State" is needed to make it work.

Thank you for opening this report. We reproduce this problem and we will fix it. I am glad that you can be unblocked by a project reload.
