QLockFile: make sure we encode the hostname as UTF-8 in the lock file

We chose to use UTF-8 as it allows us to ensure there's no mistaking the
hostname in case the locale is changed, if the host name contains
characters outside of US-ASCII.

But this didn't work because the code that wrote the hostname always
used the local 8-bit codec instead of UTF-8. On Unix, we used the
result of gethostname(3) directly, which is supposedly on the locale codec.
This commit doesn't fix Windows, which requires _wgetenv, the plan being
to encapsulate that with a qEnvironmentVariable() method.

[ChangeLog][QtCore][QLockFile] Fixed a bug that caused QLockFile not to
recognize a stale lock file if the machine's hostname contained non-US-
ASCII characters, on Unix. A Windows fix is still pending.
