    Description

      As the subject states, CPlusPlus::TranslationUnit::getTokenStartPosition() returns wrong position for QStringLiteral() on Windows. On Linux the correct position is returned.

      The following code samples can be used to replicate the issue:
      Adding the following code to a file "teststringliteral.cpp" and add the file to a small test project that will be opened with the QtCreator under test:

      #include <QString>
      
      void test() {
          QStringLiteral("Test String Literal");
          QString test = QStringLiteral("Test String Literal");
      }
      

      The following code can be added inside the QtCreator under test

          connect(CppTools::CppModelManager::instance(), &CppTools::CppModelManager::documentUpdated, this, [](CPlusPlus::Document::Ptr doc){
              if(doc->fileName().endsWith(QStringLiteral("testqstringliteral.cpp")) == false) { return; }
              qDebug() << "Starting to parse file...";
              CPlusPlus::TranslationUnit *trUnit = doc->translationUnit();
              unsigned int tokenCount = trUnit->tokenCount();
              for(unsigned int idx = 0; idx < tokenCount; ++idx) {
                  const CPlusPlus::Token& token = trUnit->tokenAt(idx);
                  if(token.isStringLiteral() == true) {
                      if(token.expanded() == true) {
                          unsigned line, column;
                          trUnit->getTokenStartPosition(idx, &line, &column);
                          qDebug().nospace() << "String: \"" << token.spell() << "\" at line: " << line << " column: " << column;
                          continue;
                      }
                  }
              }
          }, Qt::DirectConnection);
      

      The output on Linux (Qt 5.4 gcc 4.8.2):

      Starting to parse file...
      String: "" at line: 5 column: 19
      String: "Test String Literal" at line: 4 column: 20
      String: "" at line: 5 column: 44
      String: "Test String Literal" at line: 4 column: 20
      String: "" at line: 7 column: 19
      String: "Test String Literal" at line: 5 column: 35
      String: "" at line: 7 column: 44
      String: "Test String Literal" at line: 5 column: 35
      

      On Windows (Qt 5.4 msvc2013):

      Starting to parse file...
      String: "Test String Literal" at line: 5 column: 41
      String: "Test String Literal" at line: 5 column: 182
      String: "Test String Literal" at line: 7 column: 41
      String: "Test String Literal" at line: 7 column: 182
      

      One can clearly see that on windows the Line and Column gets reported incorrectly, compared to Linux where it is correct.

      I hope the information supplied is enough, if not please indicate any better way that I can provide the information in.

      Regards
