Disable hash seeding for bootstrapped tools
Any bootstrapped tool is a development tool, by definition. So the effects of seeding the hash with a random number can cause the same source input to produce different binary results, which can throw some caching tools into disarray (like the Open Build System). There should be minimal fall out from the reduced protection against DoS. Since those are only development tools, "specially crafted" input implies the developer is DoS'ing him/herself. Note: the change to qhash.cpp applies to moc and rcc, which are always bootstrapped.
