QQuickItemView: fix releaseItem() loops

Calling releaseItem() destroys the item, which emits childrenChanged
for the contentItem, and if at that point anything calls setFooMargin(),
setContentHeight(), returnToBounds(), or many other methods that
indirectly access the visibleItems list, it leads to a crash due to
read after free. Add a releaseVisibleItems() helper method that makes
a copy, clears the original list first, and then releases the items.
