When QFile::open is called with the NewOnly flag, the call will
fail if the file already exists. As usual, if the file does not exist,
it will be created. Like QTemporaryFile, there is a guarantee from
the operating system that you are not accidentally creating a new file
on top of an older file. When QFile::open is called with the
ExistingOnly flag, the call will fail if the file does not exist. The
ExistingOnly flag only provides new functionality when used with the
WriteOnly flag. For ReadOnly it provides no change in functionality,
as ReadOnly by itself already never creates.
