The existing code performed a downcast from QObject* to QAbstractAnimation*
at a time when the former QAbstractAnimation only is a QObject anymore.
The comment indicates that this was understood at the time of writing (or
else a little later), but it drew the wrong conclusions.
Statically downcasting a type whose dynamic type is (no longer) of the
target type is undefined behavior.
This change fixes the code to (implicitly) cast _up_ to QObject and
compare at that level.
Says Clang:
src/corelib/animation/qanimationgroup.cpp:278:33: runtime error:
downcast of address 0x000002966ab0 which does not point to an object of type 'QAbstractAnimation'
