Soft-deprecate obscure feature on property getters returning pointers

moc actually generates the right code for getters returning a pointer
to the type in question, or a reference to the type (a reference, one

extension is not valid for the setter: it can't receive the new value
by pointer.

Therefore, let's soft-deprecate the feature by removing its existence
from the documentation.

\li A \c READ accessor function is required if no \c MEMBER variable was
specified. It is for reading the property value. Ideally, a const function
is used for this purpose, and it must return either the property's type or a
pointer or reference to that type. e.g., QWidget::focus is a read-only
const reference to that type. e.g., QWidget::focus is a read-only
property with \c READ function, QWidget::hasFocus().
\li A \c WRITE accessor function is optional. It is for setting the
