Doc: Prepare for building modular QtCore docs.
This change fixes most qdoc errors in QtCore. There are about 900 left. The main thing this change does is moving documentation from qtcore from /doc/src to /src/corelib/doc. Other issues resolved are mis-use of qdoc commands.

+ \title Serializing Qt Data Types
+ \ingroup qt-network
+ \brief Representations of data types that can be serialized by QDataStream.
+
+ The \l QDataStream allows you to serialize some of the Qt data types.
+ The table below lists the data types that QDataStream can serialize
+ and how they are represented. The format described below is
+ \l{QDataStream::setVersion()}{version 12}.
+
+ It is always best to cast integers to a Qt integer type, such as
+ qint16 or quint32, when reading and writing. This ensures that
+ you always know exactly what size integers you are reading and
+ writing, no matter what the underlying platform and architecture
+ the application happens to be running on.
