QStringBuilder: don't allocate memory in convertFromAscii()

Use new QUtf8::convertToUnicode(QChar*, const char*, int)
overload instead of QString::fromUtf8(). The QUtf8 overload
allocates no memory, and is therefore marked as nothrow.

Using this function in convertFromAscii() allows to mark
this function nothrow, too.

All functions of QAbstractConcatenable can now be marked as
nothrow.

Since QUtf8::convertToUnicode() does not deal with lengths
of -1, insert a strlen() call when the len == -1 ASCII fast
path fails due to non-ASCII chars.

Saves 1.1KiB in text size on optimized GCC 5.3 Linux AMD64
builds of QtCore (other libraries are compiled without
exceptions, so this change should not have an effect on
those).
