If uint8_t exists, then both it and unsigned char are unsigned 8-bit
integer types (and very likely uint8_t is an alias for unsigned char).
Using uint8_t makes it more explicit that you want an unsigned 8-bit
integer type.
If uint8_t doesn't exist, then CHAR_BIT > 8 and there is no 8-bit
integer type. You're unlikely to encounter such an implementation
(I've only heard of very old systems and DSPs) -- and I'd be
astonished if such a system were able to support Qt.
(There's probably some wiggle room there. An implementation with
CHAR_BIT==8 with signed char using a representation other than
2's-complement won't define int8_t and, IIRC, therefore shouldn't define
uint8_t -- but such implementations are, I think, even rarer.)

Correct. The three char types are CHAR_BIT bits, or 1 byte.
Your best bet is probably to use uint8_t, which guarantees that your
code won't compile if the implementation doesn't meet its requirements.
