Chris Wilson 147aa29162 Fix sending UTC-offset QTimeZones through QDataStream
QTimeZone("UTC") should be valid, as "UTC" appears in the list of
availableTimeZoneIds(), and tst_QTimeZone::dataStreamTest() constructs
timezones like this, which are considered valid.

The internal representation of a QTimeZone("UTC") as created by
QTimeZone::QTimeZone(const QByteArray &ianaId) is a QUtcTimeZonePrivate
which isValid(), so the containing QTimeZone isValid() too.

When QTimeZone is serialized into a QDataStream, it calls
tz.d->serialize(ds) which is QUtcTimeZonePrivate::serialize. This
writes QStringLiteral("OffsetFromUtc") followed by the IANA ID and
the offset (etc.) to the datastream.

When QTimeZone is deserialized it looks for this marker string, and if
present, it passed all of the parameters to the QTimeZone constructor
(not just the name). However, that constructor does not support standard
IANA timezones (only custom ones), and when it detects that the supplied
IANA ID is actually listed in availableTimeZoneIds(), it leaves the
pointer to the QTimeZonePrivate uninitialized (NULL), which leaves
the QTimeZone invalid (isValid() returns false).

Thus, a valid timezone which was serialized and then deserialized has
become invalid. This also affects serialization of QDateTimes with
timezones.

Fixed by calling the name-only constructor first, which works (only) for
IANA standard timezones and leaves the QTimeZone invalid (isValid()
returns false) otherwise. In which case, we can call the many-argument
contructor to create a custom timezone with the same offset as the one
which was originally serialized.

[ChangeLog][QtCore][QTimeZone] Fixed sending IANA standard UTC-offset
QTimeZones through QDataStream, which previously came out invalid after
deserialization.

This directory contains autotests and benchmarks based on Qt Test. In order
to run the autotests reliably, you need to configure a desktop to match the
test environment that these tests are written for.

Linux X11:

   * The user must be logged in to an active desktop; you can't run the
     autotests without a valid DISPLAY that allows X11 connections.

   * The tests are run against a KDE3 or KDE4 desktop.

   * Window manager uses "click to focus", and not "focus follows mouse". Many
     tests move the mouse cursor around and expect this to not affect focus
     and activation.

   * Disable "click to activate", i.e., when a window is opened, the window
     manager should automatically activate it (give it input focus) and not
     wait for the user to click the window.
