Text: add effectiveFontPixelSize/effectiveFontPointSize

      With the following example

      Text {
    width: ...
    height: ...
    fontSizeMode: Text.Fit
    font.pixelSize: 100
}

      there's no way of knowing what the actual font size used is. This feature would be useful when you want another Text item that has the same font size as the calculated one. For example, see the attached picture. Each block is a Text item with its width and height set (e.g. in a row). The "italic" and "bold" text has different styling/font family and may even be animated, so it can't be a part of the same Text item. Currently there's no way to match the "italic" and "bold" font sizes to the "Normal text".

      The code would look something like this:

      Row {
    Text {
        id: normalText
        text: "normalText"
        width: ...
        height: ...
        fontSizeMode: Text.Fit
        font.pixelSize: 100
    }

    Text {
        text: "italic"
        width: ...
        height: ...
        font.family: "Some Font"
        font.pixelSize: normalText.effectiveFontPixelSize
     }

    Text {
        text: "bold"
        width: ...
        height: ...
        font.family: "Some Other Font"
        font.pixelSize: normalText.effectiveFontPixelSize
     }
}
