While QArrayDataPointer offers generic detach() functionality, this is
only useful for operations that may modify data, but don't otherwise
affect the container itself, such as non-const iteration, front() and
back().
For other modifying operations, users of the API typically need to
decide whether a detach is needed based on QArrayData's requirements
(is data mutable? is it currently shared?) and its own (do we have
spare capacity for growth?).
Now that data may be shared, static or otherwise immutable (e.g.,
fromRawData) it no longer suffices to check the ref-count for
isShared().
This commit adds needsDetach() which, from the point-of-view of
QArrayData(Pointer), answers the question: 'Can contained data and
associated metadata be changed?'.
This fixes QArrayDataPointer::setSharable for static data (e.g.,
Q_ARRAY_LITERAL), previously it only catered to shared_null.
SimpleVector is also fixed since it wasn't checking Mutability and it
needs to because it supports fromRawData().
