Don't enforce all QMetaType::TypeFlag difference across Qt versions

QMetaType::IsGadget was introduced in Qt 5.5 and set when Q_GADGET is used.
If an existing Qt 5.4 class was converted to a gadget in Qt 5.5+,
the two types would have differing QMetaType::TypeFlags. Such a conversion
happened for QGeoCoordinate, QGeoShape, QGeoRectangle
and QGeoCircle. There might be other classes too.

In principle, the same problem exists for every future addition to
QMetaType::TypeFlag too. This patch ensures that new flags are kept in
the metatype database and the related qFatal call is not triggered for any
flag >= TypeFlag::WasDeclaredAsMetaType.
