QString/QByteArray: detach immediately in operator[]
Unlike any other implicitly shared container, QString/QByteArray
have a "lazy detach" mechanism: their operator[] returns a
special object; assignment into that object will actually
detach.
In other words:
QString a("Hello");
QCharRef c = a[0]; // does not detach
c = 'J'; // detach happens here
This allows this behavior:
QString a("Hello");
QCharRef c = a[0];
QString b = a;
c = 'J'; // detach happens here
assert(a == "Jello");
assert(b == "Hello");
Note that this happens only with operator[] -- the mutating
iterator APIs instead detach immediately, making the above code
have visible side effects in b (at the end, b == "Jello").
The reasons for this special behavior seems to have been lost in
the dawn of time: this is something present all the way back
since Qt 2, maybe even Qt 1. Holding on to a "reference" while
taking copies of a container is documented [1] to be a bad idea,
so we shouldn't double check that the users don't do it.
This patch:
1) adds an immediate detach in operator[], just like all other
containers;
2) adds a warning in debug builds in case QByteRef/QCharRef is going
to cause a detach;
3) marks operator[] as [[nodiscard]] to warn users not using
Clazy about the (unintended) detach now happening in their code.
This paves the way for removal of QCharRef/QByteRef, likely in
Qt 7.

[ChangeLog][QtCore][QString] QString::operator[] detaches
immediately. Previously, the detach was delayed until a
modification was made to the string through the returned
QCharRef.
[ChangeLog][QtCore][QByteArray] QByteArray::operator[] detaches
immediately. Previously, the detach was delayed until a
modification was made to the byte array through the returned
QByteRef.
