Get rid of QInputDevicePrivate::extra

Since QPA plugins own the input device objects that they create, they
can also subclass to add arbitrary extra data (as was done with
QWinTabPointingDevice in abb5f0d376);
so this pointer seems unnecessary.  It's unused so far AFAIK.
Retaining it also brings up the possibility of a memory leak:
~QInputDevice() doesn't delete it, and whatever code stores something
there would need to make sure it gets deleted.
