Workaround for failing conversion between Q_GADGET's

QGeoRectangle and QGeoCircle are subclasses of QGeoShape. Before this
patch setting a QGeoShape property of a QML object is not possible
because the QGeoRectangle/QGeoCircle cannot be converted to a QGeoShape.
This patch addresses the problem by providing custom converters for
the above classes. It enables QVariant::convert() for the classes above.
