Add locations AppDataLocation, AppLocalDataLocation to QStandardPaths.
On Windows, DataLocation currently returns the value obtained by passing CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA to SHGetSpecialFolderPath(). This is the local non-roaming path. For actually storing settings, the roaming path should be used (CSIDL_APPDATA). Introduce new AppDataLocation to return that path and AppLocalDataLocation for the local path and deprecate DataLocation. [ChangeLog][QtCore][QStandardPaths] QStandardPaths now has new enumeration values AppDataLocation, AppLocalDataLocation to be able to differentiate between roaming and local paths on the Windows operating system. DataLocation is deprecated in favor of AppDataLocation.
