    Description

      There's a regression between Qt 5.15.7 and 5.15.13 or 14

      Using FileDialog to select Files and then read or copy them, correctly uses the native Android File Dialog and I can open/read/copy files as long as the filename only uses ASCII.

      Trying to open a File with Spaces inside the name as 'Unbenanntes Dokument.txt' or Umlauts as 'München.xlsx' works well on Android 10, but on Android 13 I'm getting

      W System.err: java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: reading com.android.externalstorage.ExternalStorageProvider uri content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/document/primary%3ADocuments%2FUnbenanntes Dokument.txt from pid=29647, uid=10298 requires that you obtain access using ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT or related APIs

      As a workaround I tried replacing the space by '%20' and it works, but I didn't found a workaround to replace umlauts - tried different encodings.

      On 5.15.7 all filenames work.

      Easy to test this:

      QML
      FileDialog {
          id: myFileDialog
          title: "Select one or more files"
          selectExisting: true
          selectFolder: false
          selectMultiple : true
          onAccepted: {
              // CPP
              // check fileUrls[0] with QFileInfo
              // fileInfo.exists() is false if Spaces or Umlauts are part of the fileName and if Qt 5.15.13 or 14 and if Android 13
          }
      }
       

      Here my test results for file 'Unbenanntes Dokument.txt' with a space inside:

      5.15.7 - API 30
      Nokia 7.1, Android 10
      URL: content://com.android.providers.downloads.documents/document/344
      OK: exists and isReadable
      
      5.15.7 - API 30
      Pixel 6a, Android 13
      URL: content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/document/primary%3ADocuments%2FUnbenanntes Dokument.txt
      OK: exists and isReadable
      
      5.15.14 - API 31
      Nokia 7.1, Android 10
      URL: content://com.android.providers.downloads.documents/document/344
      OK: exists and isReadable
      
      5.15.14 - API 31
      Pixel 6a, Android 13
      URL: content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/document/primary%3ADocuments%2FUnbenanntes Dokument.txt
      FAILS: does NOT exists and so NOT readable
      
      Replacing spaces by '%20' the URL exists and is readbale
      
      

      .
