Public bug reported:

If an application has instantiated a main loop (E.g. In a Qt app via
"new QCoreApplication()") but does not actually run that main loop,
instantiating an OnlineAccountClient hangs.

This was picked up when OnlineAccountClient was used from a scope that
instantiated a QCoreApplication in order to execute QEventLoops
elsewhere in the code, but did not actually use the application event
loop.
