Previously, the C locale was treated as English because each back-end
takes the locale's bcp47Name(), which maps C to en. However, the C
locale has its own rules; which QString helpfully implements; so we
can delegate to it in this case. Extended this to sort keys, where
possible. Clean up existing implementations in the process.
Extended tst_QCollator::compare() with some cases to check this. That
required wrapping the test's calls to collator.compare() in a sign
canonicalizer, since it can return any -ve for < or +ve for >, not
just -1 and +1 for these cases (and it'd be rash to hard-code specific
negative and positive values, as they may vary between backends).
[ChangeLog][QtCore][QCollator] Added support for collation in the C
locale, albeit this is only well-defined for ASCII. Collation sort
keys remain unsupported on Darwin.
