add QQuickPointerHandler::wantsPointerEvent

There will be an inheritance hierarchy of pointer handlers.  The base
class doesn't have enough information to know whether an event should
be accepted or rejected, so it cannot change the state of the event,
so there's no way for a subclass to benefit from the base class's
checking of m_enabled, if it has no way to communicate to the
subclasses.  An intermediate class has more information which
contributes to the decision of whether to accept or reject, but still
not enough: the leaf class must make the final decision.  So we need a
virtual bool function, at least as an implementation detail, even
though from the perspective of event delivery, there's only one
outcome: the event is accepted, or not.  We have eschewed public bool
functions to avoid ambiguity during delivery: there is no return
value to pay attention to, only the accepted state of the event.
