Attempt to Fix QML Display Bugs on MacOS and possible crash

Robert Lancaster requested to merge lancaster/kstars:fixQMLBugs into master

A user recently reported missing letters in QML labels, textfields, radio boxes, and titles in the Mount Control Box and the What's Interesting Window. I confirmed that there is some sort of QT bug in rendering either from the most recent QT or one of the KDE Packages. I found that I could work around the bug by setting "renderType: Text.QTRendering" as a property on the affected items. Unfortunately setting that globally did not work like it should, which must be part of the reason there is a bug, but this workaround will fix it so the bug doesn't affect us. Please verify that this change does not significantly affect Linux and Windows users and if you can please verify I fixed all the rendering issues in MacOS
