Make them templates, for two reasons:
- so they can accept std::pmr types and, in general, any basic_string
with custom allocators and char_traits
- to break overload ambiguities with the Qt string view types
Also, add the missing C++20 char8_t overloads.
Also, avoid creation of a QString in the sizeof(wchar_t) == 2 case
(Windows). Add a comment to optimize for the sizeof(wchar_t) != 2 case
later.
Found in API review.
Pick-to: 6.5
