See video link in URL field for example.

Project folder for proxy clips, thumbnails and render preview files won't change from / directory on older projects (created about a week ago).

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open project
2. Go do top menu > Project > Project Settings
3. With "Custom Project Folder" enabled, click on the folder icon and change the folder to any other destination (kdenlive folder in home, Dropbox folder, etc.)
4. Click OK

Actual results:
Nothing changes. Going back into Project Settings folder shows it's back to root /

Expected results: for the current custom project folder to change.

Bug discovered while using Kdenlive 16.11.70 git master build from ppa:kdenlive/kdenlive-master, Ubuntu 16.10 w/ Unity 7.5.0 desktop environment, KDE Frameworks 5.26.0, Qt 5.6.1.

QObject::connect: No such slot KdenliveDoc::slotMoveFinished(KJob *)
QObject::connect: No such slot KdenliveDoc::slotMoveProgress(KJob *, unsigned long)
