Fix warning in QStringView::compare(QChar) on qsizetype->int

size() - 1 is converted to int as the result, but size() is a qsizetype
and could be bigger than INT_MAX. So rewrite to not depend on the cast.
This was introduced on b2f79cceb11dfd15ac9eea631bc18ad6b036eb91.

I could have replaced size() - 1 with int(size() > 1) - 1, but that's
even more complex. To simplify, I split the function in two while
retaining the C++11 constexpr requirements.

Bonus: removes the use of the ambiguously-named "empty()" function that
looks like a verb.
