Add QDebug::toString()
This template function streams the given object into a QDebug instance that operates on a string, and then returns that string. This function is useful for cases where you need the textual representation of an object for debugging, but cannot use operator<<. A good example of this is when writing tests where you want to provide a useful failure message involving details about an object, but must provide it in a string to e.g. QVERIFY2. [ChangeLog][QtCore][QDebug] Added static template toString() function, which streams the given object into a QDebug instance that operates on a string, and then returns that string. Fixes: QTBUG-82309 Change-Id: I8411394e899dedad19cec788d779a4515d52ba11 Reviewed-by: Volker Hilsheimer <volker.hilsheimer@qt.io>
