Asserts in android-qt some proposal

[Thomas Senyk]

If you use qrc:/  or :/
please be careful not not ruin the performance of "real" qresource accesses.

Quite some people (e.g. me) are willing the add some time to the start up time 
for having lightning fast file-access.

e.g. games will load a lot of resources (read: files) anyway because they'll 
need them eventually.
