Review request for KDevelop.


Description
-------

Use a QHash instead of a fixed-size QVector for the type system registry.

While this is of course slower, the impact is imo negleglible. The benchmark
shows that the TypeSystem becomes ~20% slower, but that is still nothing in
total compared to other parts of KDevelop which are actually much slower.
Thus, limiting the API in such a drastic way (only up to N types) is imo
not worth it. Instead we can take the small performance impact and improve
the performance elsewhere :)
