When a text block is empty, and we are adding preedit text to it,
we need to merge the format of the preedit text with the current
format of the cursor, otherwise we will use a default format and
then suddenly switch to the proper one when the text is committed.
The reason this becomes a bit complex is that there are no rules
preventing someone from using several ime attributes to specify
formats for isolated parts of the text, and no rules defining the
order of such attributes. So even if the common case is one
text format attribute for the entire string, we need to make sure
we also handle the other cases gracefully, e.g. when we are setting
different formats for different substrings and then providing these
out of order. To make sure we have these corner cases covered, we
also add a set of autotests.
[ChangeLog][Qt Widgets][TextEdit] Fixed initial char format of
input method text as it is in pre-edit mode.
