We didn't delete the new'ed up QMetaTypeInterfaces, causing asan to
complain.
Fix by storing them in strong references alongside their users in a
statically-allocated container.
We use shared_ptr to hold them, because QMetaTypeInterface doesn't
have a virtual destructor, so deleting objects of the TypeInfo types
(plural!) derived from QMetaTypeInterface though a pointer to the base
class is UB. The shared_ptr constructor, however, is templated, so it
stores the correct call (~TypeInfo()) in its type-erased deleter.
We can't use std::make_shared(), because that doesn't support
aggregate initialization until C++20, so we manually new up the
TypeInfos.
5.15 is not affected.

Amends 9b320edb53.
The above commit made the mistake of relying on the 30yr+ old
fundamental relation
size() - capacity() == freeSpaceAtEnd()
which, however, Qt 6's prepend()-optimization (freeSpaceAtBegin())
broke. Because of that, while size() - capacity() may be large enough
to hold the new data, if freeSpaceAtBegin() > 0, then freeSpaceAtEnd()
may not.
Fix by inspecting freeSpaceAtEnd() instead of capacity(). The
following reserve() call is unaffected, since it internally already
adds freeSpaceAtBegin() to the requested size, which is why the
unconditional reserve() in 9b320edb535a0fbe118933d2e983b73f90c32685^

Due to the way Qt 5 and 6 registered type names, they end up producing
different type names for the same content for a typedef. For example,
because Q_DECLARE_METATYPE can't manage a comma (it's a macro), users
are forced to write something like:
using MyTypeMap = QMap<QString, MyType>
Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(MyTypeMap)
Qt 5's Q_DECLARE_METATYPE's argument "MyTypeMap" was the only name we
knew about the type, so that's what got saved in the stream. However, Qt
6 QtPrivate::typenameHelper is much more clever and obtains the name
from the compiler itself, so it "sees through" the typedef and registers
"QMap<QString,MyType>" as the official type name.
If another library/plugin has a different typedef name for the same type
(e.g., StringTypeMap), it's indeterminate which type gets saved and will
even change from run to run (depends on the QHash order).
[ChangeLog][QtCore][QDataStream] If QDataStream is used with a
QDataStream::Version < Qt_6_0 to serialize a user type that was
registered via a typedef with the metatype system, the typedef's name is

compatibility with Qt 5, allowing existing content to read the same
QDataStreams; reading from older Qt 6 versions should not be affected.

which name gets used)

The old code had several bugs:
- it immediately clobbered *this with new state, before having copied
over the elements from the old to the new buffer
- when buffer relocation threw, it would keep the new (partially-filled)
buffer and throw away the old
- it unconditionally used std::move() for non-relocatable types, making
it impossible to restore the original buffer when a move throws
Instead of clobbering *this with new state, do all the work on the
side and change *this only once the reallocation has happened
successfully.
Also use q_uninitialized_relocate_n() and unique_ptr in the

If one destroys a running QThread, so far the behavior has been to crash
(à la std::thread) -- assuming the thread hasn't already signalled that
it has finished. This behavior is hostile to solutions such as using
QThread::create(), which always require a wait() before destroying the
thread object.
We can use the opportunity to change the behavior without breaking any
valid code. Instead of crashing, inside QThread's destructor we can ask
the new thread to quit, and then join it (à la std::jthread). This
simplifies the implementation of long-living runnables and the code that
manages them.
Deploying this solution for the whole QThread class may not be entirely
painless. While no correct code would work differently with the proposed
changes, incorrect code that deletes a running thread would no longer
crash "loudly" -- instead, it might deadlock "quietly", have memory
corruptions, etc.
Hence I'm limiting this approach to only the threads created by
QThread::create(), at least for the time being. This also side-steps
perhaps the biggest problem of generalizing the approach, which is that
placing such interrupt+join logic into~QThread's destructor would cause
it to be run _after_ a QThread subclass' own destructor has run,
destroying the subclass' data members too early. This might create
an antipattern if one chooses to subclass QThread. With create(), a
subclass in question exists, and it indeed has NSDMs, but it's entirely
under our control (in fact, I'm placing the logic just in its dtor).

The only documented replacements for Q*String*::arg() are sequences like
%1, %2, %3 -- where the n-th number is expressed using a sequence of
ASCII digits [1].
The code parsing the replacements however used the QChar::digitValue()
function. That function simply checks if a QChar has a *Unicode digit
value* (no matter what its block/category is), and if so, returns the
corresponding digit value as an int (otherwise returns -1).
The result of this is that a sequence like "%¹" or "%१" actually
triggered substitutions (both count as "1"). Similarly, QChars with
a digit value would be parsed as part of longer sequences like "%1²"
(counting as "12" (!)).
This behavior is weird, undocumented, and extremely likely the usual
backstabbing by Unicode by using "convenience" QChar methods -- that is,
never *intended* by the implementation.
This commit deprecates (via warnings) such usages, which for the time
being are left working as before (in the name of backwards
compatibility). At the same time: given it's extremely unlikely that
someone would be deliberately relying on this behavior, it implements
the desired change of behavior (only accept sequences of ASCII digits)
starting from Qt 6.6, that is, after the next LTS.
Throughout Qt 6's lifetime users will still be able to control arg()'s
behavior by setting an env variable, but that variable (and the support
for Unicode digits) will disappear in Qt 7.
To summarize:
* Qt 6.3->6.5: default is Unicode digits, env var to control
* Qt 6.6->6.x: default is ASCII digits, env var to control
* Qt 7: only ASCII digits, no env var
[1] That's the name Unicode gives to them, cf. https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0000.pdf
[ChangeLog][QtCore][Deprecation Notices] The arg() functions
featured in Qt string classes have always been documented to require
replacements tokens to be sequences of ASCII digits (like %1, %2, %34,
and so on). A coding oversight made it accept sequences of arbitrary
characters with a Unicode digit value instead. For instance, "%2੩" is
interpreted as the 23rd substitution; and "%1²" is interpreted as the
12th substitution. This behavior is deprecated, and will result in
runtime warnings. Starting from Qt 6.6, arg()'s behavior will be changed
to accept only ASCII digits by default. That means that "%1²" is going
to be interpreted as substitution number 1 followed by the "²" character
(which does not get substituted, so it gets left as-is in the result).
Users can restore the previous semantics (accept Unicode digits) by
setting the QT_USE_UNICODE_DIGIT_VALUES_IN_STRING_ARG environment
variable to a non-zero value. In Qt 7, arg() will only support sequences
of ASCII digits. Note that from Qt 6.3 users can also set
QT_USE_UNICODE_DIGIT_VALUES_IN_STRING_ARG to zero; this will make arg()
use ASCII digits only, in preparation for the future change of defaults.
