// QString::arg() syntax. Note: %0 is invalid.
//
// Arguments can be passed a modifier which takes the form of a character
// just before the digit. Currently supported modifiers are s, d and x.
//
// - s: The argument will expand into "s" if it would've not expanded into "1"
//      otherwise. If it would have expanded into "1" it will expand into an
//      empty string.
//
// - d: The argument expands into the numeric form of the first character of
//      its previous expansion. Use this to get numeric forms of @c char
//      arguments.
//
// - x: The numeric argument will be represented in hexadecimal notation. This
//      will work if the argument is a string representing a number. If the
//      argument did not expand into a number in the first place, 0 is used
//      and 0x0 is printed.
