Add a qtHookData field for Qt Creator's data display

Qt Creator needs to be able to determine structure sizes and data
member offsets for certain private types even in the absence of debug
information.

It is sufficient to keep and test the actual data sets on the Qt Creator
side, as long library provides a hint which data set is needed.
So far, HookDataVersion was meant to be used for that purpose. To
make it more explicit, this patch introduce a TypeInformationVersion
field in qtHookData.
