Doc: Move multithreading guidelines to the overview page

It's helpful to see how to choose among different solutions, right
after seeing short descriptions of all the solutions.

- Some minor rewording was done during the move
- The example about polling ports in a new thread was removed because
  there are better ways to do that without threads.

Doc: Remove page about how to start QThreads

Multiple issues:
- Incomplete: It doesn't talk about instantiating a raw QThread
- Redundant: Its contents are already presented in QThread's class ref
- Incorrect: It is legal to create a QThread before a QCoreApplication
- Irrelevant: The bit about QCoreApplication::exec() and the etymology
  of "GUI thread" is unrelated to the topic of starting threads

Also remove snippets that are no longer used

Fix loss of valid dbus objects after unregisterObject

Partial revert of 3c6bb0ed8bfc9a2c679f4154585a16e47275ad21 and
57aed703d21c3a360d95fd9f85396d1283d3fdd0.

When registering an object that was previously unregistered but not yet
garbage collected, the activeChildren count on the parent node was not
incremented, which could result in other registered objects disappearing
after a later unregisterObject.

Copying objects in the tree is not free, but it's not expensive enough
or used frequently enough to justify that error-prone logic. It's much
safer to simply remove objects immediately.

QDateTime - Switch to using msecs based functions

A number of QDateTime functions directly use or modify the data stored
in the private, but future changes to store msecs and status make this
maintenance more complicated.  Where possible simplify this code to use
the standard msecs functions, standard constructors, or public api
instead.  This greatly simplifies the functions and the following msecs
storage code changes.

This is an intermim step towards storing the time in msecs.  Some
functions will be slower as a result of this change, optimization
will take place after all the msecs changes are completed.

Note this also removes a test that used valid QDates outside the range
of msecs, this change in behavior will be documented in the final
mscs change.

QDateTime - Store Qt::TimeSpec, remove Daylight Status

Change storing the spec from QDateTimePrivate::Spec to Qt::TimeSpec.

Remove the storage and use of the Daylight Status as it is almost
never set or used, and would be inaccurate if the tz were to change.
It will be replaced later with proper daylight transition support.

This simplifies the code and makes the msecs storage change easier.
