[SIC] Make non-const the QRegExp methods that modify the internals
These methods modify QRegExp internals and should not have been const. It's actually dangerous to have them const, since users may think it's safe to use the matching method in a thread-safe manner.

QRegularExpressionMatchIterator. They aim to replace QRegExp with a more
powerful and flexible regular expression engine.
+* Certain methods in QRegExp that modified the object's internals are no longer marked
+ const. They were accidentally marked const in Qt 4 but the problem could not be
+ fixed. The following are suggestions to adapt code to this change:
+ - make sure the QRegExp object is not const in the given context
+ - create a copy of the QRegExp object before using it
+ - invert the operation and use QString. E.g., rx.indexIn(string) becomes string.indexOf(rx)

* QEvent::AccessibilityPrepare, AccessibilityHelp and AccessibilityDescription removed:
* The enum values simply didn't make sense in the first place and should simply be dropped.
