Using a naked char[] here isn't necessary as QByteArray has a nice API for all
of this. Calling constData() will also always return a 0-terminated string so no
further handling is required. And then the whole manual memory handling can go
away as QByteArray will care for this when it goes out of scope.

I do not need this patch because I can refactor this function even deeper.

I have locally kept several clean-up patches, but I have not got around to
submitting them.

I will send some of them later.
