Pacify MSVC compiler incorrectly warning about unused variable

Under some circumstances, MSVC seems to complain about SlotArgumentCount
being unused

  qobject.h(210): warning C4189: 'SlotArgumentCount': local variable is
  initialized but not referenced
  note: see reference to function template instantiation
  'QMetaObject::Connection QObject::connect<void(__cdecl QAction::* )(bool),
  main::<lambda_1>>(const QAction *,Func1,
    const QtPrivate::ContextTypeForFunctor<main::<lambda_1>,void>::ContextType *,
    Func2 &&,Qt::ConnectionType)' being compiled

This is nonsense, as SlotArgumentCount is used in the next line, to
construct the list of signal arguments, but the workaround to declare
the variable as [[maybe_unused]] is trivial.

Add a connect statement to the test case that creates such a connection.
This does not produce any warning with or without the attribute (and if
it did, the build would fail for CI configuratinos setting -Werror).

Pick-to: 6.6
