Introduce QIODevice::skipData()

QIODevice::skip() called a virtual QIODevicePrivate::skip() to
implement an efficient skipping on I/O devices for the internal
subclasses. The user subclasses cannot inherit QIODevicePrivate, so
this functionality was not externally accessible.

This patch replaces QIODevicePrivate::skip() with a virtual protected
QIODevice::skipData(). While the basic implementation simply discards
the data by reading into a dummy buffer, users can reimplement this
function to improve the performance in their subclasses.

[ChangeLog][QtCore][QIODevice] Added virtual protected skipData().
Now, subclasses can implement device-specific skipping of data.
