Jon Severinsson 53e6cb3ff6 Fix the gregorian date <-> julian day calculations in QDate
The old code is just plain wrong for negative julian days. Replaced
with plain math from The Calendar FAQ [1], which is correct for all
julian days, provided you use mathematical integer division (round to
negative infinity) rather than c++11 integer division (round to zero).

While the conversion code works for up to around JD +/- (2^63/4), we
only use an int for the year in the API, so this patch limits minJd()
and maxJd() to 1 Jan (2^31) BC and 31 Dec (2^31-1) AD, respectively.

Note that while the new conversion code looks like it would be more
expensive than the old, gcc will in fact be able to optimize it to be
slightly faster (probably because x86 hardware implements round to
negative infinity, and so GCC manages to optimize floordiv to a single
instruction, compared to the three instuctions needed for operator/).

In the following test application, run with a release mode Qt and
redirecting stderr to /dev/null, I measured an improvement from
6.81s +/- 0.08s to 6.26s +/- 0.16s user time over five runs on an
otherwise idle x86_64 system.

int main(int, char *[])
{
    int year, month, day;
    qint64 jd;
    for (qint64 i = Q_INT64_C(-1048576) ; i < Q_INT64_C(1048576); ++i) {
        QDate::fromJulianDay(i).getDate(&year, &month, &day);
        jd = QDate(year, month, day).toJulianDay();
        qDebug() << jd << year << month << day;
    }
}

This directory contains autotests and benchmarks based on QTestlib. 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.
