 Mythfilldatabase uses QDomDocument to parse and store the XML data that is
 read; according to QDomDocument documentation this object is not meant to
 handle large XML files; QXmlStreamReader should be used in these
 situations.

 This pull request replaces QDomDocument by QXmlStreamreader; loading a 222
 MB XML file used 2,5GB on memory, after these changes it only uses 420MB,
 and speeds up the loading process by approx. 15% .
