The static observer can live in a union with the inline observers. We
only need to take care of calling the ctors and dtors manually then.
In order for any observers to be called in the presence of a static
observer, the static observer has to be called after the other
observers.

A common pattern in Qt Quick will be QProperty members that are
connected to a callback that needs to perform something when the value
changes, for example emitting a compatibility signal or marking scene
graph node data dirty.
To make such a pattern more efficient, a new QNotifiedProperty type is
introduced that offers the same API as QProperty<T>, with two changes:
(1) The template instantiation not only takes the property type as
parameter but also a callback pointer-to-member.
(2) Since that member itself cannot be called without an instance
and to avoid storing an instance pointer permanently, the API for
setBinding and setValue are adjusted to also take the instance
pointer. For the former it gets stored in the binding, for the
latter it is used to invoke the callback after setting the new
value.

A property alias is the equivalent of the "alias" keyword in QML. It
provides the same API as QProperty, but redirects any access to the
QProperty it was initialized with. When the original property is
destroyed the binding becomes invalid and ignores any further acccess.

Previously, only the first observer would get notified. Also, make sure
that the notifiers are always retained when switching between bindings
and values.

We must move the functor properly into the binding object, otherwise we
end up with stale pointers as pointed out by ASAN.

Instead of requiring the implementation to do the compare dance, let's
do this in the library. This reduces the amount of duplicated code
slightly and makes it easier to generate binding code from qml files.

When a class has multiple QProperty members to implement functionality,
it is common to have functions in the class that react to changes. For
example to emit a compatibility signal, in case of Qt Quick to mark the
scene graph as dirty, etc. etc.
To faciliate this use-case, this patch adds an internal
QPropertyMemberChangeHandler template that allows connecting a QProperty
field to a member function callback.
At the moment that callback is still 3 * sizeof(pointer). This could in
theory be reduced to 2 by eliminating the back-pointer (prev) as the
observer lives as long as the property. That however belongs into maybe
a future patch.
In order to get a pointer back to the surrounding object that holds the
QProperty as well as provides the callback function, the property system
was changed to pass through the address of the QProperty member at
run-time, and at compile time the delta from the QProperty member to the
beginning of the surrounding class is calculated. Through subtraction we
obtain the pointer to the owning object.

QtQml needs the private just for one detail which nobody else should
need it for: Tracking additional dependencies and marking the binding as
dirty. Exporting the private requires hiding some variables and
providing accessors, to compile with MSVC - including the removal of
QVarLengthArray usage. Upside: The binding structure shrinks by 8 bytes
and the encapsulation makes it a little easier to change things without
breaking declarative, ... in the unlikely event ;-)
Also remove setDirty() from the public API as it's not needed by QtQml
and using it is dangerous, because it means that there's a risk of
somebody keeping a reference (count) to the untyped binding from within
the binding closure, which introduces a memory leak.

A generic binding allows implementing the binding function in a way that
enables the QML engine to run binding scripts and convert the V4::Value
into a QVariant and then assign the value to the property with the help
of QMetaType::construct.

the documentation will need further improvements as well.
