It's a documentation bug. If my understanding of C++ is correct,
QCanvasItem has a private, virtual abstract member funtion
(collidesWith()) so it can only be sub-classed by classes defined as
friends. The friends are the other canvas item classes - you must
sub-class from one of these.

I've updated the docs to try and make this clearer.
