QColorDialog: Ignore mouse move events when no mouse button is pressed

mouseMoveEvent overrides in QColorLuminancePicker and QColorPicker have triggered value changes unconditionally. This happened under the assumption that the widget attribute WA_Hover is not set (which is the default behavior). In that case, mouseMoveEvents are only delivered if a button is pressed.

If WA_Hover is set - e.g. by applying a style sheet - mouseMoveEvents get delivered also when no button is pressed. This leads to faulty behavior: The color and the luminance change, whenever the mouse is moved into the respective widget. Color/luminance are changed to the value representing the edge on which the mouse has left the area.

This patch changes both mouseMoveEvent overrides. They return early to avoid hovering changing the colors of the luminance/color picker, but ignore() the event in case anything behind the picker needs hover.

Since this is a purely graphical effect, an autotest was not added.
