QWidgetWindow: check if receiver is deleted after event delivery

When a popup is active, we set the receiver of mouse events to
be the active popup widget. But when we send a mouse event to
the popup, the receiver might start a new QEventLoop (e.g by
executing a new dialog). And in the meantime, the popup will
be destroyed. This will cause a crash in the line after the
event delivery (where we sat "qt_last_mouse_receiver = receiver"),
since at that point, "receiver" would be a dangling pointer.

This patch will use a QPointer instead of a raw pointer to
store "receiver", to ensure that it's set to null for
such cases.
