Correct processEvents documentation
The documentation of processEvents states that it processes all
pending events. However, this is not true for the glib backend
and probably was not true for at least a decade.
QEventDispatcherGlib::processEvents(ProcessEventsFlags)
calls "g_main_context_iteration" which is documented
to only process events of highest priority:
https://developer.gnome.org/glib/2.66/glib-The-Main-Event-Loop.html#g-main-context-iteration
Fixes: QTBUG-87307
Task-number: QTBUG-84291
Pick-to: 5.15
