Inspector: Do not assert when trying to stream QModelIndex
Some QVariant's like QModelIndex cannot be streamed in a meaningful way:
QDataType::save() will return false for them. However, this leads to a
qWarning and Q_ASSERT in QVariant::operator<<().
To prevent this we're calling QDataType::save() manually beforehand. We
however throw away the result if it succeeds, and still call
QVariant::operator<<() to get the benefits of the QDataStream version
handling.
The alternatives would be to make QVariant::operator<<() not assert,
or blacklist all known types with problems manually. Both seem to
be difficult though ...
