Clarify variable names in QPropertyObserverPointer::notify

In QPropertyObserverPointer::notify and its calling sites,
variable names "alreadyKnownToHaveChanged",
"knownIfPropertyChanged", "propertyChanged", and at its calling site
"knownIfChanged" are used. This is confusing. This patch
changes those four to "knownToHaveChanged". For the logic
implemented it is not necessary to track whether we
have knowledge about having changed and whether it has
actually changed (if we have knowledge) separately.
