QIODevice: implement a "zero-copy" strategy for buffered writes

It works as follows:

  - user calls write(const QByteArray &);
  - this function keeps a pointer to the chunk and calls a regular
    write(data, len);
  - write(data, len) calls a virtual writeData();
  - subclass calls a new QIODevicePrivate::write();
  - QIODevicePrivate::write() makes a shallow copy of
    the byte array.

Proposed solution is fully compatible with existing subclasses.
By replacing a call to d->writeBuffer.append() with d->write(),
subclasses can improve their performance.

Bump the TypeInformationVersion field in qtHookData, to notify the
Qt Creator developers that the offset of QFilePrivate::fileName was
changed and dumpers should be adapted.
