Bug Description

ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/bq-aquaris.en-proposed #219

When entering text into a text field using OSK with predictive text enabled, it is not possible to clear the first word using the clear button.

Steps:
1) Load Ubuntu UI Toolkit Gallery
2) Select Text Field -> Standard
3) Type in a few characters using the OSK, so that the word in text field remains underlined and suggestions are displayed by OSK.
4) Press clear button in the text field.

Expected result:
The text in the text field should be cleared.

Actual result:
The clear button does not work and the text remains.

Note that if there are multiple words entered then the clear button will work as expected. This problem only happens if there is only 1 word that is being deleted.

Hmm... that thing you see in the text field is not yet committed to the component, so clear button cannot clear it. I think we should check this with OSK to see whether we can invoke clearing of the prediction in it.

  * Added public headers extra robustness checks. Made use of the qmake
    headersclean feature to check the robustness of our public headers.
  * Excluded LTTng features from non-Linux builds.
  * Moved common C++ configs to ubuntu_common.prf. The common config file
    doesn't add -Werror directly to QMAKE_CXXFLAGS anymore, it sets the
    warnings_are_errors variable so that it is correctly handled by different
    compilers (not just GCC). That allows to remove the
    -Werror=deprecated-declarations flag since warnings_are_errors defines it
    for us. Removed the DEFINES += QT_USE_QSTRINGBUILDER lines since it's
    already handled by qt_module.prf. Set the -Wsuggest-override warning to
    QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_WARN_ON instead of QMAKE_CXXFLAGS directly.
  * Cleaned up qmake Ubuntu packaging variables. The qtbase packaging for Ubuntu
    exports the CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS and LFLAGS variables in the environment before
    running configure so that the qtbase shared libraries can be compiled with
    the required distribution defined compiler flags. That is fine (though I
    guess that could be handled better at the qtbase packaging level with maybe
    a dedicated prf) but it results in qt_build_config.prf defining the
    QMAKE_CFLAGS, QMAKE_CXXFLAGS and QMAKE_LFLAGS variables with these
    distribution specific flags. Since we load this prf, these variables end up
    being defined when building the toolkit for development purpose. This is
    problematic because -O2 and -g are always defined (whatever the debug or
    release config chosen by the developer), al...
