Make it possible to handle pointers to QObject derived in QML.
This way, properties of QObject derived types can be read in QML
code for example:
Q_PROPERTY(MyObject* obj READ obj CONSTANT)
Previously, only QObject* types could be read by QML:
Q_PROPERTY(QObject* obj READ obj CONSTANT)
This meant that multiple properties and methods had to be created
for classes which were relevant to both QML and non-QML code.
This patch lifts that restriction.
As a consequence, we can also remove a Q_EXPECT_FAIL from
the qqmllanguage unit test. That test was introduced in
commit
92562eacbc3c (Allow signal parameters which are custom QML
object-types, 2012-07-13) to document knowledge of the limitation
while fixing it as much as possible.
