Marc-André Lureau 3d3eacaecc qobject: use a QObjectBase_ struct
By moving the base fields to a QObjectBase_, QObject can be a type
which also has a 'base' field. This allows writing a generic QOBJECT()
macro that will work with any QObject type, including QObject
itself. The container_of() macro ensures that the object to cast has a
QObjectBase_ base field, giving some type safety guarantees. QObject
must have no members but QObjectBase_ base, or else QOBJECT() breaks.

QObjectBase_ is not a typedef and uses a trailing underscore to make
it obvious it is not for normal use and to avoid potential abuse.
