This adds a function to register functions:

qmlfunction("unexported_foo", MyModule.unexported_foo)

The existing @qmlfunction macro also remains for functions that are in-scope and can have the same name in QML.

• URL converts to Julia file path
• Log using the Julia I/O functions
• Don't init QApplication on module load

• Update to CxxWrap 0.5
• jl_value_t* properties and function return value
• Batch update on JuliaObject
• Allow Irrational context properties

This also drops support for Julia 0.4

New features:

• Dynamically change and remove roles from ListModel
• Add a JuliaPaintedItem component, providing direct access to QPainter*, allowing e.g. tight integration with GR

Breaking changes:

• Use a cfunction instead of a regular Julia function for the OpenGL rendering function in OpenGLViewport
