QSharedPointer: Use matching new/delete

When a weak pointer calls getAndRef and there is no strong reference
yet, getAndRef creates a new ExternalRefCountData. Normally,
ExternalRefCountData is never constructed directly, only its subclasses
are constructed via placement new into a memory buffer.
To that end, ExternalRefCountData has a custom operator delete, which
calls the global operator delete (do deallocate the memory buffer
correctly).
When using operator new directly in getAndRef, gcc notices a new/delete
mismatch with the delete in the same function: global operator new
matched with class operator delete. This isn't actually an issue in
practice, as the class operator delete simply calls the global delete.
But to avoid the warning, we can simply call the global operators
explicitly.
To make it clear that allocation of ExternalRefCountData requires some
care, we additionally delete the class operator new, and only allow
placement new (or usage of global operator new, as in getAndRef).
