Right now we have multiple notions of things that represent collections of types. Most commonly used are TypeDatabase, which is supposed to keep mappings from TypeIndex to type name when reading a type stream, which happens when reading PDBs. And also TypeTableBuilder, which is used to build up a collection of types dynamically which we will later serialize (i.e. when writing PDBs). But often you just want to do some operation on a collection of types, and you may want to do the same operation on any kind of collection. For example, you might want to merge two TypeTableBuilders or you might want to merge two type streams that you loaded from various files. This dichotomy between reading and writing is responsible for a lot of the existing code duplication and overlapping responsibilities in the existing CodeView library classes. For example, after building up a TypeTableBuilder with a bunch of type records, if we want to dump it we have to re-invent a bunch of extra glue because our dumper takes a TypeDatabase or a CVTypeArray, which are both incompatible with TypeTableBuilder. This patch introduces an abstract base class called TypeCollection which is shared between the various type collection like things. Wherever we previously stored a TypeDatabase& in some common class, we now store a TypeCollection&. The advantage of this is that all the details of how the collection are implemented, such as lazy deserialization of partial type streams, is completely transparent and you can just treat any collection of types the same regardless of where it came from.
