Edward Welbourne 3cdf8debd1 Make sure to use C locale during time tests that assume it
Some format and parse tests for time and date-time depended on locale
but had test data for the C locale (so fail if the test-environment
has, e.g., LANG=de_DE@utf8).  So impose the C locale (until Qt 6).

The date-time test did *some* attempts at fixing for locale, but
failed to handle am/pm; and we do have "### Qt 6" comments in
Q(Date|Time)+::fromString indicating that we intend to switch these
methods to use the C locale by default (which shall fix this once and
for all).  So rip out the incomplete localization now and test we work
properly at least when the locale used *is* C.  Add a comment to the
matching QDate test to rip out its (presently adequate) matching code
once we do get to Qt 6 and make fromString() use the C locale.

QDateTimeParser uses systemLocale(), which is initialized the first
time it gets accessed; so we need to frob the locale *early*; doing so
in the test-class constructor is about as early as we conveniently
can; and seems to work (while doing it in individual tests does not).
(There is no point rolling back at the end; the QSystemLocale global
has been set up by then, so the roll-back would merely leave the
global out of sync with setlocale() and the environment.)

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.
