QNAM - maintain a weak reference to the QNetworkSession

When handling signals from the session, a pointer is needed.
Also the QNetworkReplyImpl needs to access the manager's session.
So, the manager should have a strong and weak reference.
The strong reference is held during connection establishment.
The weak reference is held all the time, though it will become
null when the session is destroyed in idle.
The non static member function getNetworkSession() is used to
create strong references from the weak reference where required.
