Add a method that allows registration of files to types

There is currently no way in C++ to duplicate the functionality of a qmldir
file in mapping QML files to versioned types in a module. This functionality
would be useful both in cases where a separate qmldir file would be overkill,
and for cases where the type mapping should be generated dynamically.
