Placing labels at half-integer values gives horrible
rendering artifacts. Therefore, always round to integer
values. The easiest way to do this is right before setting
the position. Introduce a helper function to round QPointF
in such scenarios.

The code was wrong, because it deleted the ChartItems in the
main UI thread, not the render thread. This would delete the
QSG nodes in the UI thread and then crash on mobile.
Therefore refactor this part of the code by adding the
items to be deleted to a list that will be deleted by the
render thread.
As a drop in replacement of std::unique_ptr, implement
a silly ChartItemPtr class, which auto-initializes to null.
This turns the deterministic and easily controlled memory
management into a steaming pile of insanity. Obviously,
this can be made much more elegant, but this has to do for now.

To replace the QGraphicsScene, we need the possibility of
showing and hiding items.
Turns out, the QSG API is completely insane.
Whether an item should be shown is queried by the virtual
function isSubtreeBlocked(), which is supposed to be
overriden by the derived classes.
However, the common nodes for rectangles and pixmaps are
supposed to be created by QQuickWindow, for hardware
optimization. This gives nodes that cannot be derived
from and therefore whether the item is shown or not cannot
be controlled.
There are therefore two distinct cases to consider: The
node is allocated by the code directly or indirectly by
QQuickWindow.
In the latter case, we use a proxy node with the only
purpose of having a "visible" flag and add the obtained
node as a child.
This madness is performed with template trickery to get
unified code.

It turns out that the wrong base class was used for the chart.
QQuickWidget can only be used on desktop, not in a mobile UI.
Therefore, turn this into a QQuickItem and move the container
QQuickWidget into desktop-only code.
Currently, this code is insane: The chart is rendered onto a
QGraphicsScene (as it was before), which is then rendered into
a QImage, which is transformed into a QSGTexture, which is then
projected onto the device. This is performed on every mouse
move event, since these events in general change the position
of the info-box.
The plan is to slowly convert elements such as the info-box into
QQuickItems. Browsing the QtQuick documentation, this will
not be much fun.
Also note that the rendering currently tears, flickers and has
antialiasing artifacts, most likely owing to integer (QImage)
to floating point (QGraphicsScene, QQuickItem) conversion
problems. The data flow is
QGraphicsScene (float) -> QImage (int) -> QQuickItem (float).
