Subject: [PATCH] QSettings/QConfFile: Fix reading on NTFS symbolic links

The code checked on QFileInfo::size() whether the file had any content.
The check failed for NTFS symbolic links since QFileInfo::size() returns 0
for them. Workaround by using QFile::size() instead.

Task-number: QTBUG-64121
