c216c3d9859a20b3aeec985512e89316423fc3a8 cherry-picks to 6.4 with only one
conflict, in tst_qxmlstream.cpp. We don't run tests anyway so you could just
ignore it.

Anyway, I rebased it and attaching a patch against 6.4 branch.

Subject: [PATCH] QXmlStreamReader: Raise error on unexpected tokens

QXmlStreamReader accepted multiple DOCTYPE elements, containing DTD
fragments in the XML prolog, and in the XML body.
Well-formed but invalid XML files - with multiple DTD fragments in
prolog and body, combined with recursive entity expansions - have
caused infinite loops in QXmlStreamReader.

This patch implements a token check in QXmlStreamReader.
A stream is allowed to start with an XML prolog. StartDocument
and DOCTYPE elements are only allowed in this prolog, which
may also contain ProcessingInstruction and Comment elements.
As soon as anything else is seen, the prolog ends.
After that, the prolog-specific elements are treated as unexpected.
Furthermore, the prolog can contain at most one DOCTYPE element.

Update the documentation to reflect the new behavior.
Add an autotest that checks the new error cases are correctly detected,
and no error is raised for legitimate input.

The original OSS-Fuzz files (see bug reports) are not included in this
patch for file size reasons. They have been tested manually. Each of
them has more than one DOCTYPE element, causing infinite loops in
recursive entity expansions. The newly implemented functionality
detects those invalid DTD fragments. By raising an error, it aborts
stream reading before an infinite loop occurs.

Thanks to OSS-Fuzz for finding this.
