Fix performance of ListModel::get()

When called, the function would return a full-fledged QObject that maps the
list element addressed. It would contain a _copy_ of all values in the list
item and it would create a new meta-object for each list element.

This function exists for the JavaScript API, and therefore we now return a much
more lightweight object. For compatbility reasons it still has to be a QObject,
but the meta-object of it is created on-demand, i.e. only when accessing
properties from the C++ side or when connecting to the changed signal of a
property. Otherwise the JavaScript wrapper will return the live values from the
model without copying them.
