Windows QPA: Avoid slowdown with UI Automation name change notification

A previous fix for QTBUG-70621, which allowed changes in the state of a
Quick combo box control to be detected by accessibility clients has
reportedly caused significant slowdowns under some difficult to reproduce
circumstances, probably associated with a large number of accessible
objects. This patch restricts the name change notification to combo
boxes, which seem to be the only kind of control requiring them for
accessibility, instead of sending it for all control types.

Fixes: QTBUG-97103
Pick-to: 6.2 6.3 5.15
