We can't depend on whether the user compiles with -std=c++17 or
-std=c++20. So select what we can depend on and make that permanent.
Prior to this change:
$ cat /tmp/test.cpp
#include <QtCore/QUtf8StringView>
void f(QUtf8StringView) {}
$ qcd include
$ g++ -S -o - -I. /tmp/test.cpp | grep globl | c++filt
.globl f(QBasicUtf8StringView<false>)
$ g++ -fPIC -std=c++20 -S -o - -I. /tmp/test.cpp | grep globl | c++filt
.globl f(QBasicUtf8StringView<true>)
After this change, they're both "false". QUtf8StringView should have
been a concrete class that derived from QBsicUtf8StringView<whichever>
and inherited all its constructors. We'd cause ODR violations in C++20,
but nothing worse than what we usually do for BC reasons.
That solution is too late for Qt 6.x. Let's revisit in 7.0.

We should use char32_t for the toUcs4() methods of QString and
QStringView and use char16_t for QString::utf16(), thereby matching
QStringView. These naturally imply knock-on changes in various places.
Unfortunately, we didn't make those changes in Qt 6, so they'll have
to wait for Qt 7.

Using compare() for those operators is not a good idea, as we can't
shortcut comparisons if the string sizes are different. This alone
made our HTML parser in QtGui around 15% slower.
Don't go through QAnyStringView to implement compare() for
QUtf8StringView, use QtPrivate::compareStrings() directly instead.

We need to add these two classes at the same time, because
QAnyStringView makes all QUtf8StringView relational operators moot. We
might want to add some later, esp. for UTF-8/UTf-8 comparisons, to
avoid the pessimization that we can't early-out on size() mismatch in
QAnyStringView equality operators, but that's an optimization, not a
correctness issue, and can be fixed in a source-compatible way even
after Qt 6 is released.
To deal with the char8_t problem in C++20, make QUtf8StringView a
class template out of which two UTF-8 views can be instantiated: the
Qt 7 version, which depends on C++20 char8_t as value_type, and the Qt
6 version where value_type is a char. Use inline namespaces to map the
QUtf8StringView identifier to one or the other, depending on the C++
version used to compile the user code. The inline namespace names must
needs be a bit ugly, as their inline'ness depends on __cpp_char8_t. If
we simply used q_v1/q_v2 we'd be blocking these names for Qt inline
namespaces forever, because it's likely that inline'ness of other
users of inline namespaces in Qt depends on things other than
__cpp_char8_t. While inline'ness of namespaces is, theoretically
speaking, a compile-time-only property, at least Clang warns about
mixed use of inline on a given namespace, so we need to bite the
bullet here. This is also the reason for the QT_BEGIN_..._NAMESPACE
macros: GCC is ok with the first declaration making a namespace
inline, while Clang warns upon re-opening an inline namespace as a
non-inline one.

And name the main class QList. That's also the one we document.
This gives less porting pain for our users, and a lot less churn
in our API, as we use QList in Qt 5 in 95% of our API.
In addition, it gives more consistent naming with QStringList and
QByteArrayList and disambiguates QList vs QVector(2|3|4)D.

QString(View)s can be built or manipulated in ways that make them
contain/refer to improperly encoded UTF-16 data. Problem is,
we don't have public APIs to check whether a string contains
valid UTF-16. This knowledge is precious if the string is to be fed in
algorithms, regular expressions, etc. that expect validated input
(e.g. QRegularExpression can be faster if it can assume valid UTF-16,
otherwise it has to employ extra checks).
Add a function that does the validation.
