QProperty: Avoid TLS lookup if we are in the same thread

If the QBindingStatus we receive from the QObject is from the thread
which is currently running, we do not need to refetch the thread local;
the reason we refetched the thread_local was after all only to guard
against the case where a QObject's property gets read in a different
thread.
To determine whether we are in the same thread, we can store the thread
id in the thread_local structure. Currently, it only gets initialized
for the main thread in QCoreApplication (as bindings are mostly used
there).
At a later point, we could either expose initBindingStatusThreadId, or
call the function when a QThread gets started.

Pick-to: 6.2
