QObject: attempt to fix a deadlock introduced by an earlier fix

Commit 71b4d4f150bc3c904a5aceec37513ddc3cd1c150 is likely the source of
the issue. It fixed a race on disconnection, but kept the call to
disconnectNotify() (which is user code) inside the locked section. My
analysis is that by construction the sender object can't be undergoing
concurrent deletion anyway at this point. All call sites
(QObject::disconnect or the signal-slot activations but before the slot
is activated) imply that the user code that reached here cannot itself
be racing the deletion.

There may be one race condition left: if the same signal was connected
earlier to a slot via queued connection and that slot deletes the sender
asynchronously. A synchronous deletion is handled by doActivate(), so
the single-shot connection is never activated in the first place, but an
asynchronous deletion could race past that check and delete the sender
while QObjectPrivate::removeConnection is running. However, I'd call
this a mistake in user code.

[ChangeLog][QtCore][QObject] Fixed a regression from 6.3 that caused
QObject::isSignalConnected() to deadlock if called from inside
disconnectNotify().
