Brush up the usingmodel example

Although not any more in Qt, it nicely shows the use of roles
and delegates in QML.

- Use a little data class for Person.
- Change the custom role name away from "modelData" which is
  now a reserved name and caused it to no longer work.
- Use a modern decorator.

Pick-to: 6.6 6.5
