We have two functions to get a substring without doing some
calculations involving size():
- mid(p): mid(p, size() - p)
- right(n) : mid(size() - n, n)
(left does not involve size(), so isn't in that set). What was missing
was a name for
- f(n): mid(0, size() - n)
As an action, it's called chop(), so call the transformation version
chopped().
I made chopped(n), n < 0 or n > size(), undefined, because QString(Ref)
::left() is broken[1], while the QByteArray implementation is not. This
is the only way to get consistent behavior among the three classes.
I's also the correct thing to do.
[1] instead of returning the empty string for negative indexes, it
returns the whole string.
[ChangeLog][QtCore][QString/QStringRef/QByteArray] Added chopped(n), a
const version of chop(n).
