qHashRange() takes an (input iterator) range and hashes each element, combining
the hash values using the hash combiner from Boost/N1837 with the magic number
0x9e3779b9, as described here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4948780/magic-number-in-boosthash-combine
qHashRangeCommutative() does the same but with a cummutative combiner (unsigned
addition) to create hash values that are order-independent, e.g. for hashed
containers. The obvious combiner, XOR, is a bad one because it eliminates
duplicate elements. Signed addition cannot be used, since signed overflow
leads to undefined behavior.
[ChangeLog][QtCore] Added qHashRange() and qHashRangeCommutative() functions to aid
implementing qHash() overloads for custom types.
