QQuickTableView: don't rebuild table upon querying content size

Overriding contentWidth/Height was done to be able to force build the
table early if the app needed to know the size of the table already at
Component.onCompleted (to e.g center the viewport on the center of
the table). But now that we have a forceLayout() function, it's better
to require that that function should be called before querying
contentWidth/Height at this stage.

By not building the table on the fly, we allow the application to
bind expressions directly to contentWidth/Height, without being concerned
about potential binding loops that can occur as a result of us
rebuilding the whole table behind his back. The benefit of this overshadows
the need to call forceLayout() explicit for some corner cases.

Note that we still redefine the contentWidth/Height properties in TableView
so that we can catch if the application sets an explicit contentWidth/Height
(which is tested by checkExplicitContentWidthAndHeight()).
