Fix documentation for qmlRegisterType and qmlRegisterAnonymousType
Plain qmlRegisterType() is deprecated and qmlRegisterAnonymousType() was added in 5.14 as replacement. Also, qmlRegisterAnonymousType() does take an import URI and a major version. The point about non-anonymous type registration is that it also takes an element name. Change-Id: I51fb6f9c63dcf15dc1da10c25ea6c6d3b88fd31a Reviewed-by: Kavindra Palaraja <kpalaraja@luxoft.com>
