Cleanup QDBusArgument marshalling for containers

There's no need to specialize the marshalling for QList, QHash and QMap
when we can simply have generic code here that works for all containers

-    If the type you want to marshall is a QMap or QHash, you need not
-    declare an \c{operator<<} function for it, since Qt D-Bus provides
-    generic templates to do the job of marshalling the data.

+    function for associative containers such as QHash or std::map,
+    since Qt D-Bus provides generic templates to do the job of marshalling
+    the data.
