Make QSignalTransition take a pointer-to-const QObject

The obvious idea is that a connect() happens behind the scenes.
As QObject::connect takes a pointer-to-const, QSignalTransition should
do that as well.

TODO: the API becomes asymmetric in that it takes
a "const QObject *" but returns a "QObject *". Reasoning is needed.
