QFuture: support cancellation of continuation chain through parent

This change allows canceling the chain of continuations attached to a
future through canceling the future itself at any point of execution of
the chain.

[ChangeLog][QtCore][Important Behavior Changes] The chain of
continuations attached to a future now can be cancelled through
cancelling the future itself at any point of the execution of the chain,
as it was documented. Previously canceling the future would cancel the
chain only if it was done before the chain starts executing, otherwise
the cancellation would be ignored. Now the part of the chain that wasn't
started at the moment of cancellation will be canceled.
