Title:
  cherry-pick https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/224684/ to fix
  image slideshows in KDE Plasma

Status in qtdeclarative-opensource-src package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  KDE Plasma is affected by a Qt bug that causes image slideshows to
  leak memory, eventually exhausting all available memory and crashing
  the system: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=368838

  This principally affects people who use the popular slideshow
  wallpaper feature. Thankfully, there's a Qt patch to fix it the issue:
  https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/224684/

  It's slated to go into Qt 5.11. We should strongly consider cherry-
  picking it into 5.9.x to get this important fix into our users' hands
  as soon as possible.
