QFileInfo is not re-entrant

    Description

      QFileInfo is implicitly shared, but uses lazy population / caching without any form of synchronisation. It thus contains tons of data races and fails to provide the documented re-entrancy guarantees.

      This is similar to the problem David Faure fixed for QUrl in Qt 4.
