Add overloads for qMin and friends where the arguments are of different
type, but one can be easily promoted to the other. Return the promoted
type. Promotions are only allowed if both types are either signed,
unsigned or floating point numbers.
This should simplify writing code in many case (as for example
qMin(myint64, 1)) and also help reduce source incompatibilities between
Qt 5 and Qt 6, where the return types for sizes of our containers changes
from int to qsizetype.
