moc: Fix parsing of operator<

moc would skip the 'operator' keyword as unknown and try to parse a type again
but as it sees the '<' it looks for the corresponding '>' which does not exist
types can't start with '<' anyway, so return an invalid type and continue
parsing as usual

Task-number: QTBUG-36834
