Qt Widget Designer: 'Go to Slot' should generate Qt 5 connection syntax

    Description

      Right click on Widget / 'Go to Slot' still generates a string-based connection for
      QMetaObject::connectSlotsByName(QObject (fex void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked() ).
      This should be modernized to create the connect statement using Qt 5 connection syntax and maybe a camel-cased name.
      The same has been requested for Qt for Python (see QTCREATORBUG-28772 ).

      Also, QTCREATORBUG-32492 states that it is slow.
