Remove unused overload of QTest::qExec.

The overload of QTest::qExec() that takes a QStringList is not used
anywhere in Qt's autotests, despite having been in the qtestlib API
since Qt 4.4.

This lack of use most likely derives from the fact that none of the
QTEST_MAIN macros use the overload, and more than 99% of Qt's tests
use those macros to avoid explicitly calling QTest::qExec().
