Revert "QmlJS: Exchange unsafe meta calls with QTimer::singleShot"

QTimer::singleShot with a member function pointer or a lambda does
not schedule the invocation directly on the receivers event loop,
even if the timeout is 0. It actually creates a timer in the thread
where QTimer::singleShot is called, which requires an event dispatcher
to be available. Only the timer's timeout() signal then schedules the
invocation on the receivers thread.

We do not want to actually run an event loop here until a timer fires.
Even if a timer with timeout 0 might directly schedule the timeout
event on the event dispatcher without involving actual timers, and
even if that event dispatcher makes sure all events are handled before
deleting itself, it would feel like relying on an implementation
detail.

This reverts commit a2e19ba1be.
