REVISION SUMMARY
  Use of "style: Text.Raised" combined with UTF-8 emoji characters
  currently crashes deep in font rendering code.
  
  A report has been submitted upstream:
  https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-82311
  
  Given this crash is surprisingly common, this patch removes the text
  shadow. I normally would be against it, but this was a subtle effect 
  anyway and frankly just made things look blurry. I doubt it'll be missed.
  
  BUG: 417699
  BUG: 413179

TEST PLAN
  Made unit test for the crash in qmlscene
  Fixed the issue there

REPOSITORY
  R108 KWin
