QMenuPrivate::hideMenu() hides a menu and reposts events in case a new
action has become the active one. For that purpose, it waits 20ms and
60ms for visual effects to be rendered.
If the last action has been triggered, the menu's deleteLater slot has
been called before hideMenu(). In that case, it gets deleted while
events are processed during the waiting periods.
Subsequently, menu becomes stale.
This patch replaces the QMenu * argument with a QPointer. Early returns
are inserted after waiting. QSignalBlocker is replaced by manual signal
blocking, to prevent the signal blocker from recovering the state of a
stale object, when it goes out of scope.
An auto test is not added: The error scenario occurs, when a menu is
triggered by keyboard input, while a mouse event is sent to the main
window from outside the menu. Such a test scenario is complex to match
and exposed to flakiness.
