Add a legacy-free QWheelEvent constructor

qt4Delta and qt4Orientation have been "deprecated" ever since Qt 5.0
(even though widgets continue to depend on those properties).  This
is mainly for use in Qt Quick right now, but can be used everywhere
later on.

+    Constructs a wheel event object.
+
+    The \a pos provides the location of the mouse cursor
+    within the window. The position in global coordinates is specified
+    by \a globalPos.
+
+    \a pixelDelta contains the scrolling distance in pixels on screen, while
+    \a angleDelta contains the wheel rotation distance. \a pixelDelta is
+    optional and can be null.
+
+    The mouse and keyboard states at the time of the event are specified by
+    \a buttons and \a modifiers.
+
+    The scrolling phase of the event is specified by \a phase.
+
+    If the wheel event comes from a physical mouse wheel, \a source is set to
+    Qt::MouseEventNotSynthesized. If it comes from a gesture detected by the
+    operating system, or from a non-mouse hardware device, such that \a
+    pixelDelta is directly related to finger movement, \a source is set to
+    Qt::MouseEventSynthesizedBySystem. If it comes from Qt, source would be set
+    to Qt::MouseEventSynthesizedByQt.
+
+    If the system is configured to invert the delta values delivered with the
+    event (such as natural scrolling of the touchpad on macOS), \a inverted
+    should be \c true. Otherwise, \a inverted is \c false
