Edward Welbourne 3cf84287e7 Prepare TextDate to use UTC-offset rather than GMT-offset zone suffixes
There are GMT-offset zones whose convention for the sign of the offset
is the reverse of what we are (still) using, which is the usual
convention for UTC-offset zone: for example, the Olson Database's
Etc/GMT+3 has offset -3 hours in the UTC-based system we use, so we
give it suffix GMT-0300. The UTC-based suffix is also what we use as
the abbreviation for OffsetFromUTC() in toString().

For now this only adds support for parsing a planned future form: the
old form using GMT is retained, to give client code some chance to
prepare for a backwards-compatible transition. Although the GMT prefix
is matched case-insensitively, only match UTC if fully upper-case;
there is no meaningful precedent for case-insensitive usage here.

[ChangeLog][QtCore][QDateTime] The Qt::TextDate format now recognizes
UTC-based offset suffixes in addition to suffixes based on the
deprecated alias GMT. This prepares for toString() to use such
UTC-based suffixes for time-zones (fromString() cannot parse the
present abbreviation suffix). A future release of Qt shall use
UTC-based suffixes in place of the present GMT-based suffixes (which
conflict with GMT-based IANA zone names) for Qt::LocalTime and
Qt::OffsetFromUTC time-specs. Client code is encouraged to use and
recognize UTC-based zone suffixes in preparation for that transition,
unless compatibility with versions before 6.2 is required.

README

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.
