QMetaTypeId2::IsBuiltIn: (new) template meta-function to check for built-in types

This allows to check whether QMetaTypeId2::MetaType exists, and can help
turn run-time into compile-time expressions, even without constexpr support,
or in situations where constexpr can't be used (because you can't overload
on it). This was designed for the QMetaType::registerConversion feature,
but it's much more widely applicable.
