This fixes an infinite loop reported by a user who had both the
definition of text/javascript from shared-mime-info 2.3 and the
definition of text/javascript from shared-mime-info 2.4 installed at the
same time. In 2.3, text/javascript is a subtype of
application/ecmascript, but in 2.4 application/ecmascript is a subtype
of text/javascript. Having both at the same time resulted in circular
inheritance.

[ChangeLog][QtCore][QMimeDatabase] Added code to detect and break
circular inheritance loops in the MIME data, which were causing infinite
loops
