Subject: [PATCH] qfloat16: simplify the legacy EXTERN_TAGGED content and mark
 for removal

Amends 21950e3085bd45dbd4b55fb76e3d47319cbb11d7.

This functionality was an ill-advised attempt at reducing compilation
times that added more legacy we have to keep until 7.0, instead of
properly fixing QMetaTypes.

qfloat16 is a built-in type whose name in the macro and the one obtained
from C++ match ("qfloat16"), and has no legacy operations to be
registered. This function only needs to return the ID.
