macOS: Activate Qt's platform a11y whenever the system queries us

Otherwise the cached information we store about e.g. table rows
and columns will not be updated, as QAccessible::isActive() is
false during QAbstractItemViewPrivate::rowsInserted(), and as a
result we'll be operating on stale information when the system
comes back later to query us about one of the cells.

This was observed when running a Qt Widgets table app with
the system's Keyboard Viewer open.
