You're free to use whatever setup you want, but the template is indeed
not supposed to have a src/ directory and the main.cpp is supposed to be
in the main directory. Of course you can change that if you want.

Yes. Documentation can be found on cmake.org, kdevelop  does provide
some auto-completion and code-navigation which should make writing the
cmake files easier.

Right, that file is only used by the C++ support.
