Visual Regression starting with Qt 5.14.2

Since Plasma 5.19 depends on Qt 5.14 I wanted to give a quick heads up that
there is a visual regression from 5.14.1 to 5.14.2 and 5.15. This causes
unnecessary/nonfunctioning horizontal scrollbars to appear in vertical QML
Listviews (and vertical scrollbars in horizontal views, but that's not that
common in plasma).

This was caused by this Qt commit
https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtdeclarative.git/commit/?
id=a82b1b278ace7a500f95473f2a873923d2d4e60a
and reported here:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-83890
I submitted a patch
https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtdeclarative/+/300187
that fixes this issue but it's not merged yet.
If you're shipping Qt 5.14, you may want to consider either reverting this
commit or including the pending fix since it may leave behind a bad first
impression after upgrading/installation for your users.

David
