Include the signal code in the argument of (dis)connectNotify().

As it turns out, the convention of (dis)connectNotify() is to include
the signal prefix, i.e. '2'.
Therefore add this prefix also when calling these functions from QML.

Also add a unit test confirming that the C++ and QML cases are now
handled the same way.

This patch is not needed in Qt5, as connectNotify() and
disconnectNotify() take a QMetaMethod as a parameter, not a
const char*.
