QMetaType: Avoid superfluous template instantiations
Apparently msvc still parses the template and generates code for it when it encounters an extern template declaration. Thus, instead of speeding up compilation, it gets slowed down significantly as the instantiation would happen in every compilation unit that (transitively) included qmetatype.h. Task-number: QTBUG-97601 Change-Id: Id5e934afb14ad8973df1b9197aef336b22220111 Reviewed-by: Thiago Macieira <thiago.macieira@intel.com>
