Attempt to make QFile I/O 64-bit safe
Use qint64 wherever possible. The linear buffer is never requested to allocate that much memory (always limited), but at least we ensure we're not dropping bits where we shouldn't. Windows's POSIX compatibility layer is never largefile enabled, so it is always necessary to chunk large reads and writes. On Unix, this will be rare, unless someone passed -no-largefile to configure, for some weird reason. Unfortunately, this is not testable, unless we can allocate a buffer with 4 GB or more in size. The test for this would be to open a file we know to be small, then try to read 4 GB + 1 byte. If everything works correctly, we'll read the full file; if there was a truncation, we'd read one byte.
