    In Qt, Unicode characters are 16-bit entities without any markup
    or structure. This class represents such an entity. It is
    lightweight, so it can be used everywhere. Most compilers treat
    it like an \c{unsigned short}.
 
    QChar provides a full complement of testing/classification
    functions, converting to and from other formats, converting from
    composed to decomposed Unicode, and trying to compare and
    case-convert if you ask it to.
 
    The classification functions include functions like those in the
    standard C++ header <cctype> (formerly <ctype.h>), but
    operating on the full range of Unicode characters, not just for the ASCII
    range. They all return true if the character is a certain type of character;
    otherwise they return false. These classification functions are
    isNull() (returns \c true if the character is '\\0'), isPrint()
    (true if the character is any sort of printable character,
    including whitespace), isPunct() (any sort of punctation),
    isMark() (Unicode Mark), isLetter() (a letter), isNumber() (any
    sort of numeric character, not just 0-9), isLetterOrNumber(), and
    isDigit() (decimal digits). All of these are wrappers around
    category() which return the Unicode-defined category of each
    character. Some of these also calculate the derived properties
    (for example isSpace() returns \c true if the character is of category
    Separator_* or an exceptional code point from Other_Control category).
 
    QChar also provides direction(), which indicates the "natural"
    writing direction of this character. The joiningType() function
    indicates how the character joins with it's neighbors (needed
    mostly for Arabic or Syriac) and finally hasMirrored(), which indicates
    whether the character needs to be mirrored when it is printed in
    it's "unnatural" writing direction.
 
    Composed Unicode characters (like \a ring) can be converted to
    decomposed Unicode ("a" followed by "ring above") by using decomposition().
 
    In Unicode, comparison is not necessarily possible and case
    conversion is very difficult at best. Unicode, covering the
    "entire" world, also includes most of the world's case and
    sorting problems. operator==() and friends will do comparison
    based purely on the numeric Unicode value (code point) of the
    characters, and toUpper() and toLower() will do case changes when
    the character has a well-defined uppercase/lowercase equivalent.
    For locale-dependent comparisons, use QString::localeAwareCompare().
 
    The conversion functions include unicode() (to a scalar),
    toLatin1() (to scalar, but converts all non-Latin-1 characters to
    0), row() (gives the Unicode row), cell() (gives the Unicode
    cell), digitValue() (gives the integer value of any of the
    numerous digit characters), and a host of constructors.
 
    QChar provides constructors and cast operators that make it easy
    to convert to and from traditional 8-bit \c{char}s. If you
    defined \c QT_NO_CAST_FROM_ASCII and \c QT_NO_CAST_TO_ASCII, as
    explained in the QString documentation, you will need to
    explicitly call fromLatin1(), or use QLatin1Char,
    to construct a QChar from an 8-bit \c char, and you will need to
    call toLatin1() to get the 8-bit value back.
 
    Starting with Qt 6.0, most QChar constructors are \c explicit. This
    is done to avoid dangerous mistakes when accidentally mixing
    integral types and strings.
